What to Expect

At Little Pearls Pediatric Dentistry, your child’s first visit is all about comfort, learning, and personalized care. Our friendly team will warmly welcome you and help your child feel at ease in our kid-friendly environment.

Dr. Mary Margaret will review your child’s medical and dental history, paying special attention to any prior dental trauma or conditions that may impact oral health. She’ll then perform a gentle yet thorough exam to assess your child’s teeth and gums, discuss any concerns, and offer age-appropriate guidance on oral hygiene and development.
