Children′s dentistry

Sometimes the hardest part of finding the right dentist is finding someone that your children feel safe and comfortable with. You want to know that your dentist is taking good care of your little ones and that they are being offered the best, gentlest and most compassionate care available.

At Floss and Smile Dental Practice our goal is to provide superior dental care in a child-friendly environment.

We make dental visits

Fun for kids and easy for parents

Children are not always able to be patient and cooperative during a dental exam. At Floss and Smile Dental Practice we know how to examine and treat children in ways that make them comfortable.

Each member of our team is excited to be here, and it shows. We’ll take the time to greet your child and introduce ourselves. We know that new experiences can be scary and that your child may have seen representations of dentists on TV and in movies that aren’t quite accurate.

Getting to know us and seeing that we are gentle and kind people is a great first step toward changing that perception.

The dental check-up

During your child’s check-up our dentist will look at the following:

Which teeth have erupted (come through the gum)
The development of the jaw
The soft tissues (tongue, cheeks, lips and throat)
Check for cavities in the teeth
As the child gets older we will assess how they bite together to check if orthodontics may be required later on

Orthodontic treatment

Many children end up needing orthodontic attention at some point during their development. Because we want our dental practice to be able to address the majority of your child’s paediatric dental needs, we offer orthodontics treatment.

Teeth straightening

Treating your child gently and with care

We offer exceptional, gentle dental treatment for children who have:

Suffered injuries to the tooth or teeth
Complex medical history or conditions
Developmental issues such as missing teeth, enamel problems or underdevelopment
Special needs and surgical needs e.g. impacted teeth, tissue removal, extra teeth and where teeth fail to emerge properly
