All Aboard! Check-Ups at MQ-Dental

MQ patients begin their journey as they enter the waiting room, which looks like an old-time train station designed to make your kid’s dentist visit less intimidating. Here, patients make a quick stop at the “Ticket Counter” to receive their official  Boarding Pass, which specifies which of seven special pediatric dentistry and orthodontics rooms the patient is heading for.

​

Patients’ first contact with the staff at our  pediatric dentistry office sets the tone for the visit, so each dental assistant, hygienist and receptionist is hand-picked for not only their experience and skills, but also for their ability to relate to young and special-needs patients. The “dental assistant conductors” are friendly and easy-going, helping to transition the “passengers” into their dental treatment rooms.

​

When you bring your kid in for a dentist appointment or orthodontic treatment they will have a brief stay in the waiting room filled with a large movie screen showing current kid-friendly features as well as games, books and toys, each patient then presents their boarding pass. Then they are escorted down the custom-designed train track carpet to one of The Smile Station’s themed destination exam rooms, each with a different color scheme and themed design details, down to the drawer pulls:

 

The staff at our Jericho pediatric dental office knows that the most important thing to keep children unafraid is to have a fun environment which is why we have worked so hard to make our office and our staff kid friendly.
