We Are Kid-Friendly at Kaydental in North York

Our goal is to make each child's visit a positive one, whether your child is 3 or 16. At Kaydental, we strive to provide a "dental home" from your child's first visit and beyond.

Here are some things we do:

• Prevention is the best medicine. At each visit, the dentist will examine your child's teeth for any problems and the hygienist will complete a thorough cleaning, removing plaque and build up, as well as provide a fluoride treatment or sealants as needed. Small cavities are easier to fix and won't develop into more serious problems if caught early.
• Guidance: The dental hygienist will go over proper brushing technique with your child (and you if they are young) and offer tips and tools to improve their oral hygiene.
• Habit: Creating a good positive routine when they are young will help promote a lifetime of good oral health.
• Diet Counseling: If your child is cavity-prone or we see signs of enamel break down (from acid erosion), we will review their diet with them and/or you and changes that can help avoid the damage and cavities caused by certain foods and drinks.
• Relaxed and informed: We will go slowly and explain to your child as we go along what they can expect. We find that kids are much more relaxed, cooperative and have less fear when they understand what's happening.
• Rewards: We have a well stocked treasure box with toys and stickers for children. We end each visit with a reward and positive reinforcement.
