Routine dental care is just as important for children as it is for adults. At Clinique Dentaire Ville Saint-Laurent we do our best to meet your child's needs and keep their smile healthy and happy into adulthood.
Your child’s dental visit may be covered by the Canada Dental Benefit (CDB).
Early Positive Dental Experiences
At Clinique Dentaire Ville Saint-Laurent we are dedicated to helping children feel at ease during their dental appointments so they feel encouraged to maintain good oral health both now and into their adulthood.
Our dentists offer a wide range of dental services to children and teens in Saint-Laurent in order to provide them with the most positive dental experience possible.
We realize that going to the dentist can be an intimidating experience, so we strive to keep the environment calm, friendly and inviting. We will work at your child's pace, take breaks if they get overwhelmed, and explain each step of the process.
Dental Services for Kids
At Clinique Dentaire Ville Saint-Laurent, our services can be tailored to meet your child's oral health needs, and keep their smile healthy.
Preventive Dental Hygiene
Visiting your dentist for routine examinations and cleanings when your kid is young will help you to preserve your child's primary teeth until they are ready to fall out of their own accord and be replaced by their permanent adult teeth. During each appointment with your child, we will review proper oral hygiene to make sure that your child's smile is getting the care it needs while at home.
Restorative Dental Services
If your kid is at risk of tooth decay or develops a cavity, your dentist may also recommend a restorative treatment like a dental filling.
