We create and maintain some of the prettiest smiles in NM - Let yours be one of them. We perform a comprehensive dental exam with a gentle touch and your comfort always in mind. We believe it is extremely important to get to know and understand each of our patients needs and expectations, so we start each first visit off with a comprehensive discussion to learn about you including a review of your dental and medical history. We are a family practice, which means we delight in taking care of your childs dental needs, and we do our best to make going to the dentist a fun as well as educational experience. From the waiting room with special play area to the actual cleaning and examination, we strive to develop a rapport with your child. We recognize that a pleasant early association with the dentist means better oral habits and health as the years go by.
