About

Dental practice is limited to pediatric patients and patients with special needs. Pediatric Dentistry is a specialty that focuses on the oral and dental health of infants, children, and adolescents. As a pediatric dentist with specialized knowledge and training, Dr. Matt is committed to making the entire dental experience positive to foster a lifelong commitment to good oral health. From preventive care (including comprehensive evaluation and examination, cavity risk assessment, preventive prophylaxis, fluoride treatment, orthodontic evaluation and referral, and oral hygiene instruction), to office oral and IV sedation, as well as in-patient hospital treatment, Dr. Matt is an accomplished practitioner who prides himself in connecting with his patients while providing optimal care. Fostering a compassionate environment allows for a positive dental experience for each patient while delivering the highest quality of care. Educating both patients and parents on oral health reassures the parents of Dr. Matt's concern and professionalism while allowing for an environment of mutual respect and understanding.
