Children’s dentistry
First visits from age one, cleanings, sealants and fillings — with the pace set by the kid, not the clock.
- Starting price
- $95 for a child’s exam, cleaning and fluoride
- Time
- Every six months from the first birthday.
What it is
Kids don’t fear the dentist; they fear being surprised. So the first visit is short, nothing is done without showing them the tool first, and if a child needs a break, they get one. Marisol counts teeth out loud. We have a drawer of stickers and it is not a small drawer.
Parents stay in the room. You’ll get a straight answer about what’s normal, what’s worth watching, and what actually needs treating.

What happens
Meet the chair
Ride up and down in it. Squirt the water. Nothing else happens until they’re comfortable.
Count and clean
Teeth counted, polished with a flavour they pick, and a fluoride varnish painted on.
Talk to the grown-up
What we saw, what to do at home, and whether sealants make sense for the new molars.
“My daughter asks when she can go back. That’s the whole review.”
