Dr. Jan Work, is a board-certified pediatric dentist, and has been practicing pediatric dentistry in Sacramento County since 1992.  She has an experienced,  kind and caring staff who love children.  Their goal is to help children enjoy coming to the dentist.  While waiting, children will enjoy the play area, the stuffed animals, and electronic games and there are lots of magazines for the parents to read.  The large open-bay working room allows children to experience pediatric dentistry in a warm, pleasant atmosphere.  At Dr. Jan's the emphasis is on the child.  She and her staff want their patients to receive the best possible care. 

Your child should visit the dentist by his/her 1st birthday. You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive. Your child should be informed of the visit and told that the dentist and his staff will explain all procedures and answer any questions. The less to-do concerning the visit, the better.

It is best if you refrain from using words around your child that might cause unnecessary fear, such as needle, pull, drill or hurt. The office makes a practice of using words that convey the same message, but are pleasant and non-frightening to the child.

We strive to make each and every visit to our office a fun one!
