Seeking Dentist in Silver Spring/NW DC Area

My daughter has turned 2 in the past month and I wanted to take her to the dentist for a check-up because I think that there may be a problem with two teeth. When these two top teeth came in as a baby I brought the possible problem to the attention of my pediatrician, but she seemed unconcerned because they are her baby teeth and will eventually fall out. I'm concerned and would like to be reassured by a dentist on what should be done.

Any advice on a gentle, kid-friendly dentist would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

What can I do next?

I absolutely adore my dentist, Dr. Stephen Kleiman, ###-###-####, he's in the Medical Arts building right next to Laurel Hospital. I had bad experiences as a kid, so I avoided dentists for years. I was getting hot/cold pains, so I picked this one and went to see him. He is amazing. I had root canals and tons of cavities filled. It wasn't fun, but the pain was so small for such serious work! I took some advil and was fine. My husband is also fearful and had some equally serious work done with little pain. My stepdaughter's mother had a chipped tooth pulled when she was 2, so she was terrified to go to a dentist. But Dr. Kleiman and his staff reassured her and now she has no problem. He was patient and explained some concerns about her teeth with me, but didn't want to rush into having unecessary work done. He's good about going over every option and leaving it up to the parent (or adult patient). I can't rave about him enough.

I've been very happy with Dr Robert Camps. His office is near the intersection of Rte 29 and Musgrove Road. The staff are great and very understanding of squirmy/fearful kids. They stay on schedule, so that you're not waiting an eon.
