General Info
Our office, as well as The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) all recommend establishing a "Dental Home" for your child by one year of age. Children who have a dental home are more likely to receive appropriate preventive and routine oral health care. The Dental Home is intended to provide a place other than the Emergency Room for parents. You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive. If old enough, your child should be informed of the visit and told that the dentist and their 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", "shot", "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 invite you to stay with your child during the initial examination. During future appointments, we suggest you allow your child to accompany our staff through the dental experience. We can usually establish a closer rapport with your child when you are not present. Our purpose is to gain your child's confidence and overcome apprehension. However, if you choose, you are more than welcome to accompany your child to the treatment room. For the safety and privacy of all patients, other children who are not being treated should remain in the reception room with a supervising adult. We strive to make each and every visit to our office a fun one!

Dr. Jiwani and Dr.Sherman saw both my kids. Loved both of them- A+, I would highly recommend them for anyone in the area. Dr. Sherman may come-up as rude but he has good heart. Dr. Jiwani was a delight to talk to and followed-up with a personal phone call to check on Ari (My Son) .

In this day of urgent care centers, insurance dictated care and the obscene pressure on efficiency I had given up on the notion that dentists and doctors have the time and ability to deliver what seems now like old fashioned care. Dr. Sherman and his team provided the type of care and follow up that I would only expect from a close family member- except we weren't family we were just a new client with an emergency. Do yourself and your children a favor- give this dental practice a try. Most likely you'll be writing the next rave review.

I don't usually write reviews, but I chose Shore Children's Dental based on reviews, so I feel obligated to say that they were indeed fantastic. Everyone there was super friendly and we were in and out in no time. The waiting room (where we didn't spend much time) has a huge fish tank and video games. Once the child is in the chair, she can watch tv while her teeth are cleaned. Brilliant! My three year old can be a handful, and this visit was literally and figuratively painless. I strongly recommend to any parent!!

I highly recommend Shore Children's Dental! Upon moving to the area last year, we needed to find a new pediatric dentist. My son, almost 5 at the time, had no prior dental problems and we have always taken good care of his teeth. We noticed a pretty large spot on his molar and after seeing Dr. Sherman and the xrays, he needed some extensive fillings in between 4 molar teeth. We were in shock and very upset/anxious that he would need several treatments to fill these teeth. Dr. Sherman was extremely patient with us and scheduled a separate consultation to sit down and speak with my husband and I. We worked on a plan together and had 4 appointments over the course of 10 weeks or so. Our son never felt the novaccaine and was not really phased by the treatments until the very last filling. The entire staff was kind, helpful and professional.

I was more nervous than my 2 and a half year old daughter for her first visit. Upon entering the office, all my fears evaporated. Dr. Sherman and their staff are exceptional at what they do, and take great pride in their work. My daughter was not cooperative in the dentist chair, but she received excellent care dispite this. I have learned valuable pointers on how to care for my daughter's teeth, and received much-needed tools on how to motivate her brushing and how to properly brush.



Both the quality care and the exceptional staff make the experience of going to the dentist a treat for my child. I drive a distance to get there, and know it is worth it. I plan to stay as long as possible at Shore Children's dental.

Shore Children's Dental Care is the most family friendly dentist I have ever been to. Dr. Sherman has been my dentist since the age of 3 and has made my teeth look perfect to this day. Anyone that goes to Shore Children's Dental Care is lucky to have the expertise of Dr. Sherman and the amazing staff that accompanies him.

Have no fear Dr. Sherman is here. If your little boy or girl is fearful of going to the dentist like my son was, one visit to Dr. Sherman’s office will change that.

Dr. Sherman is very gentle and professional. When you visit the office the waiting room is fun and cheerful with a huge aquarium and video games for the kids. The staff treats the kids like their part of the family. And the kids go home with so many goodies ….it’s like Christmas! Your toddler will go home feeling like the prince or princess they are and their teeth will be healthy and clean.

Not only do they provide GREAT dental care but they also provide an EXCEPTIONAL experience for children and their parents. Knowing that children can be unpredictable, the minute you walk into the office, whether it is the waiting area or dental office, they created a fun and reassuring atmosphere for children of all ages! Dr. Sherman and his entire staff put children first in every aspect!!

You may have a hard time getting your child to actually leave this dental office! After the painless exam and cleaning, the children get to put a token in a machine for a special toy, this is in addition to an already fully stuffed goody bag of tooth brush, paste, stickers, toys and floss. An entire waiting room full of video games, computer games, sand table, awaits -- like I said it's almost impossible to actually leave the office! My daughter jumps in delight when she sees the door to the Shore Dental as she knows an entire play experience is about to happen. And there are t.v. shows streaming on the ceiling while you relax in the dental chair. Great attentive care from staff and the fabulous Dr. Sherman ... plus all these amenities yields a truly unique and positive dental experience!
