Children’s Dentistry (Pediatric Dentistry)
Our clinic works with many children and we enjoy it very much. The importance of starting to teach good dental care habits beginning at an early age. Her approach is very friendly, putting children at ease and comfortable.  To make children comfortable with their dental check up she works very closely with the parents, creating confidence with her young patient. During the dental visit she introduces the children: 
After each visit, children get to pick a free toy of their choice. They are shown the choices before they are taken to the dental chair. They also receive a child-friendly looking toothbrush (Pokemon /Cinderella) and a children's toothpaste. Remember: It is very important that children learn dental care (dental hygiene) at an early age and that they not be afraid of their dentist.  During the visit to the dental office we check for deep pits, fissures, cavities and other abnormalities such as missing teeth that should be there. The Canadian Dental Association recommends the assessment of an infant’s mouth within 6 months of the appearance of their first tooth or by one year of age.

It is also important to monitor their teeth when they start losing their baby teeth (deciduous teeth) starting at the age of 4-5 all the way to the age of 13-14. Sometimes complications can arise such as the front adult teeth grow in behind their baby teeth so there are 2 rows of teeth. The adult teeth may grow in crooked. It is always cheaper and easier to rectify problems at an early age, rather than in adulthood. In some cases if a child loses a baby tooth or two because of cavities, a retainer called a "space maintainer" is required. This will ensure that the necessary space will be kept for the adult teeth in such a way, that the neighboring teeth will not bend inward nor twist, so that adult teeth will erupt properly. Other children may have their adult teeth erupt at a faster rate than their palate and/or jaw bone is expanding in their development. Thus the adult teeth will be crowded and out of place. These children need a retainer called a palatal expander or a mandibular (jaw bone) expander to make room for the adult teeth to erupt properly. If this done, expensive braces may not be necessary. If the above mentioned precautions are not taken, braces are in order. The sooner the alignment (straightening) treatment is started, usually after all the adult teeth have erupted, the sooner the young person will have straight teeth and the less it will cost.
