Do Not Eat

Do Not Eat

Patients must not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your procedure. If your child does not come fasting, we WILL NOT be able to treat them due to safety concerns.

Bring a Change of Clothes

Bring a Change of Clothes

Bring an extra set of clothes for your child, just in case of an accident!

Be Flexible

Be Flexible

We often don’t know exact treatment needs until a child is sedated, which means it isn’t possible to know exactly how long each procedure will take. As such, your child may be seen sooner or later than expected.

Houston Children’s Dental Center

I was very hesitant about taking my son to the surgical center, but to my surprise, it went way better than I every could have expected. The doctor himself made sure to come talk with me beforehand to tell me everything to expect, and afterwards to let me know it all went perfectly! THANK YOU for being so great with my baby boy!

DFW Children’s Surgery Center

Staff were so accommodating and sincere in their willingness to help my son. They have such a great attitude which made the visit so much more enjoyable. My son felt comfortable and was talked to directly by the dentist. I was highly impressed by the facility and staff that I would recommend this place to anyone.
