At Children’s Dentistry of Athens, you can be confident in the dental office you have chosen for your child. From your first visit, we want you to feel welcomed and well cared for.
Our dentist and staff promote preventative dental care including a healthy diet and great oral hygiene at every visit. Because of this, we encourage parents to be active participants in each and every visit with their child, so we reinforce this education with all members of the family. This gives us the opportunity to educate you as well so you can help reinforce these healthy habits at home.
