Read MoreIf you've experienced your child having high amounts of anxiety and fear in visiting the dentist as a toddler/young kid, then this review and this dentist is likely for you as Dr. Lawrence and his team absolutely knocked it out of the park.
Despite my daughter being what I consider to be quite resilient and mostly fearless for a 4 year old, she developed a crippling fear of the dentist at quite a young age. Unfortunately, I noticed she had developed several likely cavities and so finally had to bite the bullet and take her in.
The first appointment was a disaster (or so I thought) as we couldn't even get her to climb into the chair without a fearful breakdown. Dr. Lawrence jumped in to soothe things over. He was so kind and used a tone of voice that made my daughter start giggling a bit. The end result on the 1st appt was Dr. Lawrence asked for her permission simply to look in her mouth with the magic mirror and brush her teeth for her.
After doing that, Dr. Lawrence and I agreed on a slower plan to make my daughter comfortable which would ultimately build more trust with him and my daughter. We started small the next week with some light dental cleaning the next appt, followed by some treatment for the tooth on the 3rd appointment, and finally a crown on the 4th appointment. Each appointment my daughters confidence grew and now she thinks the dentist is fun and LOVES her crown (I had to explain that the general goal going forward is to avoid anymore crowns).
I can only express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Lawrence and his team for their patience, their approach, their kindness, and not once pushing my daughter to do something she wasn't comfortable with. They also never made me feel like a bad parent (which I definitely had those thoughts at times). I highly highly recommend. Thank you Dr. Lawrence!
