With over 10 years of experience in her field, Dr. Rai is grateful to give your child the knowledgeable expertise and upbeat, nurturing approach they deserve for a life of fearless visits and brilliant oral health

The Importance of Forming the Doctor/Patient Relationship Early

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that parents bring their children in for a dental check-up by their first birthday, or as soon as their first pearly white appears. By introducing your child to professional dental care at a young age, they’ll learn that going to the dentist is normal, easy, and even exciting!

At Shirlington Pediatric Dentistry, prevention is at the core of our care. From your child’s earliest years, Dr. Rai is here to lay the foundation for strong oral hygiene habits and a sparkling, cavity-free grin–all while building a positive, trusting bond with your little one along the way!
