Good oral hygiene habits established early on can set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. That’s why we are committed to providing comprehensive and high-quality children’s dentistry services to help your child achieve and maintain optimal oral health.

Why is Children’s Dentistry So Important?

There are many reasons why children’s dentistry is so important, including:

  • Preventing dental problems: By providing regular check-ups and cleanings, our dentists can identify and treat any potential problems early on, preventing them from becoming more serious and potentially expensive to treat later.
  • Establishing good oral hygiene habits: Our dentists can teach your child the importance of brushing and flossing regularly, and provide tips and tricks to make it fun and enjoyable.
  • Promoting healthy habits: A healthy mouth is important for a child’s overall health and well-being. By promoting good oral hygiene habits early on, we can help your child maintain a healthy smile for life.
  • Providing a positive dental experience: Our dentists are dedicated to making your child’s dental experience as positive and stress-free as possible. We believe that by providing a comfortable and friendly environment, we can help your child overcome any dental anxiety and develop a lifelong love for oral hygiene.

Very professional and it sounds strange, but caring! The techs are the happiest most pleasant I’ve ever had. They all seem to be work in harmony. Dr.Sonn I’d the best. He is professional, patient and explains all so I feel comfortable.

The entire staff was extremely pleasant and efficient. Dr. Geiger did two fillings for me. She was extremely pleasant and made be feel very confident in her ability. I am so glad my wife insisted I go here after my dentist of over forty years retired.

I love my dentist…said no one ever…well unless you go to Watson Dental!!! They honestly made my root canal today painless and I was able to work the rest of the day. It was from an injury several months ago, and I appreciated that they were on board to try to let my tooth heal before we did the crown and root canal. They are always respectful of my time and worked with me on payment plans when I didn’t have dental insurance. They sincerely care about their patients and their patients’ teeth! The hardest part of my appt today was not talking because Dr Geiger and Justine are so fun to be around!

Dr. Sonn, Dr. Geiger and all of their staff are amazing. My daughter and I are both patients and we have never had a single negative experience. You can tell the staff work well together; the office is a well oiled machine. Neither of us dread our dentist appointments anymore! Cannot recommend highly enough!

Everyone was very nice. They were very easy to talk to and made me feel very welcomed and comfortable. They took their time to explain what they were doing to me in detail and made sure I understood and was comfortable with it. They also made sure we were on the same page on the procedure that was needed to be done to get the results I wanted with the least amount of time necessary for recovery and the final results give or take any small hiccups along the way. I'm very satisfied with our out come of my visit today. Thank you. I am looking forward to the finish product in the future.

I always have a good experience at Watson Dental. I've had dental work with both dentists, and they always put patient comfort first. I love my hygienist, but when I've had a substitute they have also been wonderful. I also want to commend them for not pushing sales of services or devices like other dentists I've been to.

As a child I had more cavities than teeth. Then permanent teeth grew in 100% crooked ... so I've spent hours, weeks in dental chairs during my lifespan... including visits at San Fransico Dental School. Therefore I feel I'm an expert judge of dental skill, expertise etc. The staff at Watson Dental check all the TOP rated boxes for all aspects of a top notch dental office. They are also very "pain conscious" which lowers the anxiety levels.

We took our three-year old son to Watson Dental for his first dental visit and had such an outstanding experience from the welcoming staff at the front desk to the happy smiles from everyone especially my son on the goodbye. The team was so amazing working with children and helping him understand what they would do on this visit. They got X-rays, a teeth cleaning and a fluoride treatment on his visit! We were so impressed! Dr. Geiger was his dentist and she was so great with him as was her assistant who spent a lot of time with him prepping and cleaning. We can't wait for his next visit and neither can he! This experience will create a lifelong positive experience of the dentist and we are so grateful for everyone at the office who made this visit so great! I've also had my teeth cleaned here with Dr. Sonn and his team and had just as great of an experience. I thought it was important to highlight how great they are with the kiddos though as they're making lifelong positive memories of the dentist! Thank you!

Today was my first visit with Watson Dental Associates, and given that this was a dental emergency, I am more than impressed and satisfied. Dr. Sonn and his staff were amazing. I was in a lot of pain and have suffered some trauma from previous work, and Dr. Sonn was very careful, thoughtful, and reassuring. The procedure was pain-free, and they took their time to make sure I felt safe. I am glad I made the choice to come to Watson Dental Associates.
