Chesapeake Pediatric Dental Group was established in 2005 to help address the special needs that children have when it comes to compassionate, quality children's dentistry. Not only do we try to give positive dental experiences, but also try to provide children with a loving and caring atmosphere where they are all treated as individuals.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommend a child’s first visit by age 1. Your child’s first dental visit is very important to us! Your child will always be placed with a pediatric dentist for their first visit, not a hygienist. This is important to us because this is your child’s first exposure in a dental setting and we want to make it an enjoyable one.
We take sedation VERY seriously at our office. Our doctors have extensive training in sedation and anesthesia. There are many types of sedation available to our patients, and each is appropriate for certain types of treatment and certain types of behavior.
Drs. Koymen and Tennassee are both board-certified pediatric dentists who are concerned with access to quality dental care for children in the State of Maryland. Board certification involves continuing education and a series of exams all focused on the most up-to-date practices of pediatric dentistry. Both dentists are on staff at Franklin Square Hospital. With the knowledge and experience of our doctors and staff, we are able to offer both children and parents a “non-threatening” dental environment so that dental experiences are fun and exciting.
