Neighbourhood Dental is pleased to offer dental services to patients of ALL ages. We are proud to offer Children’s Dentistry services customized specifically to children and their unique needs, from infants all the way to teens.

As parents ourselves, we are well aware of the unique concerns and fears that young children sometimes have when it comes to dental visits. Visits to the dentist should be an enjoyable experience each and every time. At Neighbourhood Dental, we do our very best to provide outstanding dental care, in a friendly, comfortable, and caring environment so that children enjoy their experience, and leave eager and enthusiastic to continue with their future visits.

Our goal is to encourage children to develop and maintain a consistent oral hygiene routine that will continue well into adulthood for a lifetime of good oral health habits.

Early Dental Visits Equal a Lifetime of Dental Health and Wellness!

Neighbourhood Dental follows the recommendation of the Canadian Dental Association that children have an oral exam by a dentist within six months of the eruption of their first tooth, or by one year of age, whichever comes first.

A child’s first few experiences should be positive ones to encourage a positive attitude about Dental Care. Dental visits should be relaxed, enjoyable and fun, while also informative and educational. We like to emphasize preventative dentistry, with a goal to help children avoid future tooth and gum issues, while also motivating them to take better care of their teeth and overall oral health. When a child’s very first tooth appears, it is time for a dentist to start examining the development of their teeth, mouth, and gums.
