Children’s Dentistry at
Praxis Dental
Families Welcome
Our compassionate family dental team is committed to helping your child enjoy a positive experience to reduce any anxiety or fear that they may be encountering. At your child’s first appointment, we’ll focus on creating a familiarity with the practice and review specific concerns that you may have. If treatment is necessary, we can discuss which options are available and arrange a care plan that fits your schedule, budget and immediate needs.
Preventative Dentistry and Hygiene
Regular checkups and cleaning appointments provide your child with the tools necessary to have healthy teeth that last well into adulthood. Depending on their needs, we offer therapeutic and basic services including:
- Dental sealants
- Fluoride treatments
- Digital X-rays
- Oral hygiene instruction
- Habit cessation counselling
…as well as restorative fillings, crowns and pulp therapy to treat active dental disease.
Orthodontics
As young as 7 years of age, we can detect growth irregularities in your child’s jaw and tooth eruption patterns that, if not intercepted, can lead to complex orthodontic concerns later on. Early growth modification and orthodontic appliances can facilitate proper orofacial development as your child matures.
Protective Mouth Guards
Is your son or daughter involved in athletic activities? Dental injuries such as broken or knocked out teeth, lip lacerations and concussions are some of the most common emergencies affecting child athletes. We offer custom mouth guard fabrication for the best protection possible. Our athletic guards fit more comfortably and securely than any product available over the counter.
Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) Accepted
Families who receive CDBS benefits are entitled to up to $1,000 in dental services per child (ages 2-17), over the course of two years. Qualifying services include basic cleans, exams, fissure sealants, tooth coloured fillings, root canals and more.
