Dental Care for Children

At East Village Dental we help create lifelong healthy habits and a positive experience for our youngest patients, ensuring their long-term oral health well into the future.

What dental treatments do you provide for children?

The most important dental treatment we provide for children is regular dental exams and check-ups. As with all our patients, we recommend and promote regular check-ups with us to help ensure their oral health is being maintained.

With regular check-ups, we’re able to keep an eye on any preventive measures or restorative treatments that might be needed. This could include fluoride application, fillings, or as they get older, orthodontic treatments.

When should I first bring my child into the dentist?

At East Village Dental, we recommend bringing in your child to visit us when their first tooth erupts, or by the time they turn 12-18 months. This might seem young, but we have found that this helps the child get used to regular check-ups and examinations, and can help stop any dental phobias or anxieties from forming.

What steps should I take at home to help with my child’s oral health?

Good oral health starts at home, and ideally at a young age. If you’re unsure of where to start, our team can help you form an at-home dental care routine and can offer advice on brushing techniques and toothpaste. A positive attitude towards caring for your teeth and oral health is one of the better places to start and we always recommend parents try to lead by example!

How often should I bring my child into the dentist?

We recommend bringing children in every six months or so. Regular check-ups such as these will help us thoroughly review their overall oral health and evaluate the development of their teeth.

Today, I had the best experience at the East village Dentist. From the start to finish, it was perfect. Sadie and grace at reception were extremely professional and friendly. Everything was done so quickly. The dentist doctor was pure angle. Her hands are angle hands. I didn’t feel any pain. She was brilliant in very way. She explained everything she did and included me in decision making. I wish for her the best in health and all good this life can offer. I completely thankful and grateful for her amazing service. I take my hat of that young doctor! The nurse who was assisting her was fantastic too. The whole service was world class. I am so happy I had the opportunity to be served by such amazing team.

Just had my second appointment and I cannot recommend this practice enough. From the receptionist (all are kind but Grace especially was so helpful) getting me my initial appointment during a busy period to Dr Leah who did my filling for me. After shopping the area for a good dentist, I can say that this is the best. Thank you Grace & thank you Dr Leah, see you again in 3 months.
