Your child's first dental visits can be a trifling experience. That is why we
have developed the Tell-Show-Do method that will calm down the most startled
children. This method has proven to help children as well as encourage them to
visit their dentists regularly. We recommend that parents should not explain any
of our dental procedures that we will perform. We understand that you might want
to help and provide as much information as possible to your child, but by
telling them any misleading information will damper this method. As experienced
pediatric dentists, we are trained to use and explain the Tell-Show-Do method,
which is outlined below: Tell
First, we explain to the child what we are about to do. We ask them simple
questions that keep your children assured that our procedures will not hurt them
in anyway.
Show
next, we show the child how we are going
to proceed by using models and actual
tools we use during their procedure.
Do
finally, we proceed exactly as we described earlier. We always ask your children
how they are doing and are aware if they are uncomfortable during their dental
procedure. Good behavior is backed up by positive reinforcement.Too much information before the appointment can conflict with the Tell-Show-Do
method, confusing the child. Please contact our office so that we can be of more
assistance. Our goal is to provide the best dental care for your children with
any discomfort. |
