Positive Early Dental Experiences
Our dentists in Fredericton know that visiting the dentist for the first time can be daunting for kids. That's why we are committed to helping them feel safe and comfortable when they are here.
We will work at their pace, take breaks when they need us to, and explain everything we are doing and why we are doing it so that they feel fully involved in the experience.
By encouraging children to practice good dental care and take an active role in their oral health today, we hope to inspire them to take care of their teeth for the rest of their life.
Your Child's First Visit
Within the first six months of a baby's first tooth appearing, they should be taken to see a dentist. At minimum, they should be taken to the dentist by their first birthday. This is a pivotal time to spot any developmental problems before they become big concerns.
Dental Services for Kids
At Brookside Dental, our services can be tailored to meet your child's oral health needs and keep their smile healthy.
Preventive Dental Hygiene
The best way to preserve your child's primary teeth until they are ready to fall out on their own and be replaced by their adult teeth is to take them to the dentist for regular exams and cleanings while they are still young. At each appointment, your dentist and hygienist will go through proper oral hygiene techniques with you and your child to ensure they are getting the at-home care they need.
Restorative Dental Services
If your child is at risk of tooth decay or develops a cavity, your dentist may recommend a restorative treatment such as a dental filling to preserve their oral health.
