Children's Dentistry
The way children feel about going to the dentist can shape how they care for their smile for life.
Your Trusted Children's Dentists in Etobicoke
At Six Points Plaza Dental, we believe that education and prevention are the foundation of lifelong oral health—at every age. That’s why we focus on providing the tools, guidance, and support families need, starting as early as possible.
Our team offers open, age-appropriate education beginning with prenatal dental care, helping parents understand how to protect their child’s smile even before birth. As your family grows, we’re here every step of the way with gentle care and trusted advice.
We also encourage you to bring your children to your own dental visits, so they can get familiar with the sights, sounds, and friendly faces of our clinic. It’s a simple way to build comfort, spark curiosity, and support their early dental education in a stress-free environment.
Together, we’ll help your whole family feel confident about caring for their smiles.
Many children learn their most important oral hygiene habits during their visits to our practice. We take the time to teach kids in a fun, supportive way, so they not only understand how to care for their smiles but actually enjoy doing it.
During their appointments, we cover the basics and beyond, including:
- How to brush properly and build a consistent daily routine
- The right way to floss for cleaner, healthier gums
- Smart nutrition tips to support strong teeth and overall health
- Simple ways to prevent cavities, including limiting sugary snacks and drinks
We believe education should be empowering, not overwhelming. That’s why we use kid-friendly language, positive reinforcement, and hands-on demonstrations to make learning easy and fun.
By starting these habits early, your child builds a strong foundation for lifelong oral health—and we’re proud to be a part of that journey.
