Happy Visits
At Pearland Pediatric Dentistry, we believe that a positive dental experience at a young age can set the stage for a lifetime of happy, stress-free dental visits. That’s why Dr. Clark and Dr. Zoronjic offer Happy Visits – a no-pressure way for your child to get comfortable with the office and team in between routine recare visits. These visits also benefit our anxious patients and autistic patients.
What is a Happy Visit?
A Happy Visit is a relaxed introduction into the world of dentistry for your child. Each visit is unique because it is tailored to your child. During a typical visit, your child will:
- Tour our office and meet our friendly, welcoming team
- Sit in the dental chair (we even let them try out the cool buttons!)
- Get familiar with dental tools like the toothbrush, mirror, Mr. Thirsty and “water squirter”
- Enjoy some fun, interactive play to ease any worries
There's no need for any treatments or procedures—just a chance for your child to ask questions, explore the office, and experience the joy of a dentist visit in a safe, relaxed environment.
When Should We Schedule a Happy Visit?
Dr. Clark and Dr. Zoronjic will typically recommend happy visits if a child is anxious or having a hard time during a routine exam visit. The number of happy visits and timing will depend on your child and their needs. Happy visits are complimentary and are scheduled in the morning so that our full focus can be on your child!
