Pediatric Dentistry

Children are important at Niagara Dental Centre. A child’s dental care is an essential part of their health and emotional well-being as they grow older. Child dentistry focuses on children from birth through adolescence. During these formative years, it is critical for your child to be comfortable with their dentist and hygiene team. Many emotional and post-traumatic anxieties originate from bad experiences when a child is young, and can stay with them throughout life. Here at Niagara Dental Centre, we are aware of this, and our team of professionals is caring, compassionate, and excellent with children and their teeth. We will provide a soothing environment for child and parent to enjoy their first and recurring dental visits, with exciting concepts and creative techniques to ensure your child has a positive experience.  The Niagara Dental Centre team will help you maintain your children’s oral health by modifying any bad habits and providing simple treatment as needed. Our team will work with both the parent and the child to teach them the proper techniques with brushing, flossing and using fluoride.

It is recommended that a child’s first dental appointment should be within six months after the presence of their first tooth or their first birthday, whichever comes first. Early detection of tooth decay and these early oral examinations are extremely important!
