- Bring a Comfort Item – A favorite toy or blanket can help reduce anxiety.
- Choose the Right Time – Schedule appointments when your child is well-rested and fed for a better experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pediatric Dentistry In Edmonton
When should my child have their first dental visit?
We recommend bringing your child in by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears to promote good children’s dentistry. Early visits help prevent dental issues and create a positive foundation for lifelong oral care.
How can I help prevent cavities in my kid's teeth?
Encourage twice-daily brushing, limit sugary snacks, and schedule routine check-ups to promote a wide range of dental health benefits. Fluoride treatments and sealants can also provide extra protection.
What should I do if my child knocks out a tooth?
For a baby tooth, do not attempt to reinsert it—contact our clinic for guidance. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, keep it moist (in milk or saline solution) and visit our dental office immediately. Acting quickly improves the chances of saving the tooth.
How can I help ease my little one's anxiety about dental visits?
Scheduling a friendly “meet the dentist” visit before any treatments can help. Letting them explore the chair and tools in a non-threatening way builds comfort and trust.
Can my child see a general dentist, or should they visit a pediatric dentist?
While general dentists can treat children, our team of experts specialize in working with young patients as early as possible. We educate your child with age-appropriate techniques for brushing and flossing. We use a gentle approach to ensure a positive, stress-free dental experience.
