What Sets Us Apart
Building Trusting Relationships for Lifetimes of Healthy Smiles, One Child at a Time!
Since 2012, Dr. Tamera Coffman and our team have had the honor to care for Albuquerque’s young, growing smiles.
Ours is a family-oriented and kid-friendly practice, filled with warmth, laughter, and encouragement. We all love working with children, treasuring each unique and blossoming personality.
With our extensive experience and training, we are able to connect with children in a positive and non-frightening manner. Through patience, kindness, and gentleness, we earn children’s trust and they feel safe and comfortable in our care. This allows us to guide a child as they develop good dental health practices, leading to a lifetime of healthy smiles!
What’s Different at Duke City Pediatric Dentistry?
Dr. Coffman and our team provide a personalized experience for each patient and focus on what is needed to ensure every child has a positive appointment.
- We teach children the importance of their oral health and how to keep their mouth and teeth healthy and clean through good home hygiene.
- If a child needs treatment, we use movies for distraction, provide painless anesthetic delivery, and take our time to help all patients feel secure and relaxed.
- We offer nitrous oxide for patients with mild dental anxiety, as well as treatment at the hospital with general anesthesia for children who need additional help to have a procedure completed safely and effectively.
Dr. Coffman is Board Certified through the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Following dental school, she completed a rigorous pediatric dental residency to become an expert in caring for the oral health concerns of children, including children with complex health, developmental, and emotional needs. Her specialized training, and ongoing continuing education, allows her to provide the latest techniques and behavioral methods to ensure non-threatening, comfortable, and efficient care.
