No judgment, ever

Common questions

Questions parents ask

Everything you might want to know before your child's first visit.

When should my child's first dental visit be?

We welcome children from their first tooth coming in, so regular visits become a normal, comfortable part of growing up.

What happens at my child's first appointment?

We take things slowly: a look around the room, a gentle count of teeth, and plenty of time for questions, with no pressure to do more than they're ready for.

My child is nervous about the dentist. Can you help?

Yes. We go at your child's pace, explain everything in simple words, and never rush a visit.

Do you treat dental emergencies for kids?

Yes, we offer same-day emergency appointments for sudden toothaches, chips or knocks.

Do you direct bill our insurance?

We direct bill to most insurance plans, so you don't have to pay up front and claim it back yourself.

Are you accepting new child patients?

Yes, we're currently accepting new patients of all ages across North Vancouver.

Still have a question?

Call our North Vancouver clinic and we'll talk you through it.
