Dr. Schweiger's Approach
Her Philosophy
"As a member of DentistsWhoCare.com and the Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, my goal is to educate children and their caregivers on how to achieve good oral health. Through education and preventative dentistry, we can keep children out of the dental chair for difficult and traumatic procedures. This, in turn, leads to less dental anxiety and improved overall health. I truly believe that if our local dental professionals, caregivers, educators and leaders can work together, we can make a positive impact on the future oral health of our community's children."
-- Dr. Angela Schweiger
Her Techniques
"To promote motivation for good oral health habits, I believe your child's appointment should be pleasant and stress-free. I will always take extra time to get-to-know your child and ensure that he or she is comfortable with me and my staff. During each appointment, I use the "Tell-Show-Do" model, which helps the child understand exactly what to expect throughout each appointment so there are no surprises. This helps reduce the child's anxiety during the appointment. If needed, we also offer Nitrous Oxide ("Laughing Gas"), which is a safe option for reducing anxiety in most children and adults."
