Early Dentistry
The habits that we carry on into adult life often tend to be learned at a very young age. This goes for oral health, hygiene and commitment to dental appointments as much as anything else. Bank Place Dental is a family practice, equipped to handle all preventative and necessary dental procedures and services that your children need.
We have children of our own and so we have great experience in making children feel comfortable and informed about how we are going to help them have healthy mouths and teeth. We also know the importance of ensuring our future generations are given the best change for a healthy mouth. This is why we regularly visit local kindergartens to provide free education on oral care. It is also a great way to remove any worries children may have before they visit the dentist, as they become familiar with the people and process.
We recommend and encourage you to bring in your children for their first dental checkup when they reach the age of 2 years old. Not only is it important to start their oral health journey as early as possible, but you may also have the costs of some of their treatments covered.
The CDBS program offers benefits for a wide range of individual treatments, including routine exams, cleanings, x-rays, fillings, and more. At Bank Place Dental, we will always let you know whether you are eligible or if a treatment is not covered by the CDBS.
The CDBS does not cover all treatments. For instance, the benefits aren’t available for any orthodontic or cosmetic work, nor for any dental procedures that have been carried out in a hospital. If you want more detail about the CDBS, eligibility, benefit caps, and more, we will be glad to answer your questions.
We recommend that you bring your children into Bank Place Dental before their actual session. Usually it’s a great idea for them to come along to your own or an older sibling’s checkup appointment, so that they can see what we do when we count and check your teeth. At the end of your appointment we will gladly give your children a ride in the chair and an opportunity to explore the room and ask any questions they may have. Becoming familiar with the place and people and explaining what we are doing and why on a kid’s level is so important in making any child feel safe and comfortable.
We also have a kid’s corner at the practice, as well as a changing table in the bathroom, so kids of any age as well as their parents are more than welcome.
We will be glad to help your child get over any uncertainty or fears they may have in regards to dental treatment. We have a range of “tiny tooth mirrors” “magic lights” and other techniques to help our little patients get excited or at least comfortable. However, we also recommend that you bring them to tag along with their older siblings during their own appointments. This way, they can see for themselves there is nothing to worry about.
If your child is two years old or older and have yet to have a visit to the dentists’ office, Bank Place Dental is ready to help you give them the best start to a healthy oral life. Get in touch and make an appointment today.
No matter your age, dental history, or whenever the last time you had a checkup was, Bank Place Dental is here to make you feel safe, comfortable, and to ensure the health and protection of your teeth. Make an appointment today to begin your routine checkups and cleans and feel peace of mind when it comes to your dental health.
