Dear Friends- Welcome to KidsDentistry.com, the web site for patients, parents and pediatricians in the St. Louis area! We have designed this site to be both fun and educational. Make sure you take the office tour to get a preview of what to expect when you visit our facility. We tried to establish a bright, cheerful office environment in such that it is child-friendly, and not create a typical dental office that can be perceived as threatening. We want your child to feel happy and secure during his/her dental visit. I hope you like and approve of our taste in decorating! For information on your child's dental development, and tips on what you can do to protect his or her dental health, browse through our "Dental Health Tips" section. There are plenty of diagrams and photographs to make it easy. Children are precious gifts, and visiting a pediatric dentist early in the child's growth years can help avoid unnecessary decay and dental treatment later. Just like the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Sedighi and Dr. Whitley's vision is optimum oral health for all children. Pediatricians will find this section helpful as well. We've included several clinical photos designed to help you identify various oral conditions. Please be sure to keep our "Emergencies" page in mind if a need for this reference should arise. During an emergency in the St. Louis area, call us at (636) 777-7777.  For after hours and weekend dental emergencies, you can have our answering service page Dr. Sedighi/Dr. Whitley. If you have any comments or questions, don't hesitate to drop me a note or call our office at (636) 777-7777. Thanks for visiting our web site! I hope to have the opportunity to see you soon. Sincerely, Dr. Homer Sedighi & Dr. Stephanie Whitley
