Pedodontist : Your pediatrician can make a recommendation. You can call the local dental society for a list of pediatric dentists. Talk to other moms for recommendations. Good luck.

AAPD: look up the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, AAPD. It is a good source but unless you have specific needs you do not always need a "pediatric" dentist.

To find Pedo DDS: To find a pediatric dentist in your area, ask your child's pediatrician your own dentist for recommendations. Also, I think meeting him/her in person, seeing the office and asking questions can help you determine if she/he is the right fit for your child.
