What is the difference between a general dentist and a pediatric dentist?
A pediatric dentist is a dentist who exclusively treats children. A pediatric dentist has been trained for 2-3 years beyond dental school to communicate with, educate, and treat children of all ages. Pediatric dentists are trained to treat behaviorally challenged and special needs children.

What does board certified mean?
Pediatric dentists with board certified status have proven their commitment to excellence and exhibited a level of dedication not possessed by other dentists. Certification requires verification of credentials and the successful completion of a voluntary exam. To achieve this level of recognition, the dentist must continually demonstrate exceptional knowledge and expertise, as well as a commitment to continuing education.
Dr. Jones has achieved board certified status, which represents the highest honor bestowed by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.
When you choose a board certified dentist, you can have confidence that your child is receiving top quality care.
