Children’s Dentist Calgary
Bringing your little ones to the dentist can be nerve-wracking and you may not know when to bring them in. We recommend coming to see us as early as six months old or when they first get their teeth. Our dentists receive specialized training in pediatric dentistry, so we can handle all the needs of your kids, no matter how little they are.
We offer Calgary Children’s dental services for infants, toddlers, children and early teens. Our pediatric dentists have specialty training to give your children the best dental care we can. We’re your local choice for the whole family.
Benefits of Pediatric Dentistry
When you start your kids off early by going to the dentist, you set them up for a better future. Getting them used to coming to a dental office with all the sights and sounds can help them feel less anxious as they age. We designed our office to ease anxiety in all our patients.
Our dentists are happy to sit with your kiddos and walk them through the process. We love that our little patients are curious about all the devices and what they do, and we’re happy to show them. We’ll ensure they know what will occur during their exam, what happens during cleaning and how they can keep their teeth clean after they leave.
Getting your kids started early means we can teach them about oral hygiene and how to care for their teeth. It’s also an excellent way for us to work with parents on how they can care for their children’s teeth between visits. We talk about the importance of brushing and flossing, how to prevent cavities and what to expect when teeth start getting loose.
Regular check-ups and cleanings are great ways to prevent issues from popping up. When your child has good oral hygiene habits, they are less at risk of problems like cavities and gum problems. It means dental visits are less anxious, brushing and flossing aren’t painful and dental issues can be handled immediately.
Calgary Children's Dentist FAQ's
You can help your child feel more comfortable by speaking positively about the dentist, bringing a favourite toy or blanket for comfort, and explaining that dental visits help keep their teeth healthy and strong. Letting our team know in advance also allows us to create a more relaxed and welcoming experience for your child.
We know that not everyone has had a great experience at the dentist. We’re here to change that. Letting us know that your child is scared or has had a lousy experience allows us to prep for their visit.
We encourage all our patients to ask questions. We’re happy to go through the process and let your child get comfortable. If they are afraid of a step or a tool, we’ll sit down with them and explain what it does and how we use it. Providing your child with all the information they need is something we enjoy. We want our patients to be happy to see us.
