My dtr needs to go to the dentist, she hasn't been and is 4 yrs old!! She is fine going to the doctor, loves to go! But if I even mention going to the dentist she gets upset and cries! We have tried playing games about getting your teeth looked at, everything..nothing works! She begs not to go!
I want to take somewhere I feel comfortable will take good care of her and help her not be scared!! We live in Chicago but are open to surrounding areas!!!

What can I do next?

Can't say enough about Dr. Nancy Hijawi - 2601 Compass Rd. #105 Glenview - - ###-###-####.

Their office is state-of-the-art brand new with TV's at each chair, star lights on the ceiling, a pint size potty in the bathroom, 10 flavors of fluoride, lots of toy/goody bags (including princess toothbrushes!) but most of all a gentle, loving dentistry method! She has had great advice about brushing, nutrition, helping stop thumb-sucking, etc.

On the first visit their only goal is to have your child sit in the chair. They might "count teeth" but they just pace it as your child needs. LOVE THEM.

My 4-year old - not kidding - asks "please, when we can go back?"
