What is a good reason for visiting a pediatric dentist over a standard dentist?

Asked by jamms (609points) July 15th, 2008

I have an 11 year old who needs a tooth pulled. Her step father is insisting on using a pediatric dentist. Is she of the age where that is still important? What does a pediatric dentist do that another dentist could not? What age is it appropriate to switch from a pediatric dentist to a standard dentist?
