PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY

• • •

Since 1993, Dr. Hollar has treated many children for many different dental procedures, although there are some children and some procedures whose treatment and circumstances are better served by a pediatric dentist. Pediatric dentists specialize, and only treat, children. When appropriate, a referral to see a pediatric dentist is always a consideration.

SEALANTS

Sealants are a preventative procedure. Sealants are much like flowing "super glue" into the grooves of back teeth. Before pouring the sealant into the grooves, we thoroughly clean the grooves and remove all plaque, stain, and food. Then the sealant is applied and hardened with a special light, preventing harmful substances from occupying those hard-to-clean grooves.

Keeping the food, plaque, and stain out of the grooves stops the first step in the chain of events that leads to decay. Sealants are effective prevention for both children and adults alike, and the application of sealants is simple, fast, painless!

Practice Philosophy

Our goal is to provide safe, state-of-the-art care in a friendly environment.
We spend time educating our patients and their families so that they have
a comfortable understanding of their care and can actively participate in
treatment decisions. Our approach is conservative and multi-disciplinary,
often involving other specialists to provide optimum care.

The Dentist’s Prayer

Lord, be with me daily as I practice dentistry.
May I treat with gentle hands all who put their trust in me.
May my calm assurance help to ease their fears
To relax the tense adults and dry the children’s tears.
May I treat each patient with competence and skill,
Whether a difficult procedure or a tooth that I must fill.
As I diagnose and treat be with me all the while,
And reward me with my patient’s lovely, healthy smile.
Amen.

The Academy of General Dentistry Creed

1. To educate myself to perform with greater ability.

3. To treat my patients with continued dignity and empathy.
4. To share my knowledge with my patients and my profession.
5. To maintain my integrity and professionalism.

Inspirational Dedication

To my God...
the architect of the masticatory system.
The more I understand the logic behind its beautifully integrated design,
the more I realize its every element was planned by a loving creator.
The words of affection that we speak, the smiles we share,
the songs we sing, and the kisses we give to our loved ones
are possible only because an element of love
was integrated into this design.
