A healthy smile starts with healthy teeth.
We offer a comprehensive dental service designed to support your family’s oral health and create happy healthy smiles for a lifetime.
While at-home care is important, it’s not always enough to prevent cavities and other problems. That’s why professional teeth cleanings and exams are essential. Our friendly and fun dentists will remove plaque and tartar from your child’s teeth, reducing the likelihood of cavities. This exam allows the dentist to catch small issues before they become big ones.
Regular dental check-ups and hygiene visits can help to ensure that your child’s teeth are healthy and strong.
The fillings used today are much more durable and long-lasting than in the past. In addition, fillings for children can be completed quickly and easily in just one office visit. However, despite these advances, many parents still hesitate to seek treatment for their child’s dental cavities. However, it is important to remember that dental cavities can lead to serious oral health problems, such as pain, infection, and premature tooth loss.
One of the most important things we can do for our patients is to help them develop good oral hygiene habits early in life. That’s why, at every appointment, we take the time to involve parents and children in the process. We start by providing supportive gentle care, teaching them about the importance of oral health in a fun and engaging way. Then we move on to practical tips on how to brush and floss properly.
By making dentistry fun, we hope to instil good habits that will last a lifetime.
Custom mouthguards are made to fit the child’s mouth exactly, providing them with the best protection possible. They are also easier to put in and take out, and they stay in place better than other types of mouthguards. Getting a custom-fitted mouthguard is a simple, pain-free and fun process that will help to protect your child’s teeth as they grow.
This is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and to establish a trusting relationship.
We understand that children’s dental visits can be daunting, but we want you to know that we’re here to help. We’ll do everything we can to make sure your child has a positive experience at our office.
Here’s what you can expect at your child’s first appointment at Smileologie:
We’ll introduce your child to the chair and all the sights and smells of the dentist in a way that is non-threatening and fun. We take time to introduce them to the dental equipment in a friendly and gentle way. This will help your child to feel more comfortable on future visits.
During this visit, we’ll take a close look at their teeth, gums, and alignment. We’ll check for issues like cavities or gum disease and consider overall growth and development. We’ll also assess their risk of developing future dental problems. If required, we can refer them to an orthodontic specialist.
This information will help us develop a treatment plan that is tailored specifically for your child.
Our dentists and dental assistants love teaching kids how to brush their teeth. It’s an important skill for kids to learn. We also provide parents with information about children’s dental care, so they can support their children at home.
Regular dental care is an important part of providing optimal oral health for your child. And, by working with a family-centric dentist, you can make sure that your child gets the best possible care.
When will I know my kid is ready to see the dentist
When taking care of your kid’s teeth, it’s important to start early and get them used to the idea of dental care. Bringing them in with you for your own check-ups and appointments is a great way to introduce them to the sights, smells and sounds of the dental office.
Going to the dentist is an important part of maintaining good oral health, so we encourage you to bring your child in for their first visit once their teeth start to come through.
