When searching for a good pediatric dentist or orthodontist in NYC, there are a number of factors to consider–from location to credentials to anxiety-reducing practices. We spoke to Dr. You-na Kim and Dr. Junginn Choi from Manhattan’s Upper East Smiles for guidance on choosing the best pediatric dental practice for your kids in 2024.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that infants see a dentist for their first checkup within six months of getting their first tooth or by age one. “A dental home should be established by the first birthday to help children and their families institute a lifetime of good oral health,” pediatric dentist Dr. You-na Kim explained to us.
But, where do parents begin to look for this “dental home” in a city full of dentistry practices? And how do you find the best fit for your family? After showing us around Upper East Smiles’ brand new pediatric office on East 78th Street and 2nd Avenue–just around the corner from its first Upper East Side location–we sat down with Dr. Kim and orthodontist Dr. Choi for some much-needed expert advice on what to look for in a pediatric or orthodontic dental practice in 2024.
