Your child’s teeth require special care, and that’s why Dr. Lea Shapiro places a special emphasis on pediatric dental services. Our caring, compassionate doctor and staff can help your child develop a positive relationship with the dentist — something that will set her up for a lifetime of beautiful teeth and a healthy smile.
We recommend that children have their first visit to the dentist around the time their first tooth erupts, or by their first birthday. It may seem early, but this initial visit is about more than checking for decay and other problems — it’s about introducing your little one to the sights, smells, and sounds of the dental office. That’s why this first visit is usually short, and doesn’t involve much in the way of “treatment.” This appointment is also your chance to ask any questions you may have about keeping your baby’s mouth clean, like how to prevent baby bottle tooth decay or when to begin brushing little teeth.
Call our Greenbrae dental office at (415) 461-5926 if you’d like to schedule an appointment with Dr. Shapiro. Our practice is committed to comprehensive exams and patient education, and we offer a broad range of today’s best general, cosmetic, and restorative services. We’re happy to serve patients from San Rafael, Novato, San Francisco, Berkeley, and all surrounding communities.
