Make them feel comfortable and assure them that by the end of session, they will look nice with healthy teeth. Educate them about the importance of a dental visit and use analogies like how a dentist is a hero who fights off "bad things" that lurks in his/her mouth.
During the procedure, keep asking the kid how he/she feels and when it looks like it's starting to hurt, ask if he/she wants you to stop.
I guess communication is an important aspect and just remembering to smile and be relaxed about it. Give out something like a magnet, sticker or a kid's toothbrush at the end of the session.
