UNLV – Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry

UNLV Pediatric Dentistry

On June 12th, 2015 The University of Nevada, Las Vegas held its ceremony for those earning a Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry.  The event was held at Via Brasil Steakhouse in Summerlin, NV.  Faculty, staff, students, and their families were invited to attend.  The event began with dinner, and was followed by a ceremony to present post graduate students with their Certificates in Pediatric Dentistry.  Pediatric Dentists go through two additional years of training after earning their dental degree.  The education focuses on children from birth through adolescence, and patients with special healthcare needs.

The following post graduate students in UNLV Pediatric Dentistry were awarded their certificates:

  • Matthew Herring, DMD
  • Jarod Johnson, DDS
  • Katrina Naasz, DDS
  • Ja Yeon Son, DDS
  • Emily Whipple, DMD
  • Jaime Williams, DDS

Dr. Jarod is finishing his last two weeks of clinical responsibility at The University of Nevada, Las Vegas.  Upon completing his program he will be a full time Pediatric Dentist in Muscatine, IA servicing the needs of the community and surrounding areas.  Dr. Jarod is planning on opening Arctic Dental in July of 2015.

Dr. Jarod has received advanced training in behavior management, sedation, hospital dentistry, trauma, special health care needs, interceptive orthodontics, space maintenance, oral hygiene, and dietary counseling. His energetic personality allows him to relate to kids on an individual level. He understands the importance of children having a positive dental experience and strives to provide the best care tailored to each child’s needs. Dr. Jarod enjoys educating children and their families on the importance of oral health so they can establish good habits for a lifetime of smiles. His goal is to develop relationships with each of his patients to establish a dental home that is welcoming from infancy through adolescence.
