A Lifetime of Healthy Smiles Starts with Prevention at Children’s Dental Centre of York

At Children’s Dental Centre of York, we believe prevention is the foundation of excellent oral health. Our comprehensive preventative dental services help protect your child’s smile from cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems before they start.

Comprehensive Oral Examinations

Regular dental check-ups allow our pediatric dentists to monitor your child’s oral development and catch potential issues early. During these examinations, we assess tooth development, check for cavities, evaluate bite alignment, and screen for any oral health concerns. These thorough examinations help ensure your child’s smile stays healthy as they grow.

Professional Dental Cleaning

Our gentle dental cleanings (prophylaxis) remove plaque, tartar, and stains that regular brushing can’t eliminate. Using specialized tools and techniques, our skilled hygienists carefully clean and polish each tooth, helping prevent cavities and maintain healthy gums. We take extra care to make these cleanings comfortable and positive experiences for our young patients.
