Family Dentistry in Mill Woods

The real value in a family dental practice is the result of their underlying philosophy, which informs who they hire, who they treat, and how they treat them.

A family dentist’s desire is to provide care to all members of the family, despite their age or circumstances, and to continue to see those family members for as long as possible. Meeting that desire requires family dentists to start building relationships with their patients from their first visit, so care is taken to ensure that children and adults all feel comfortable and at ease in the clinical environment.

Dental offices can feel transactional and cold, but we aim to provide a completely different experience. Our décor is chosen to be pleasing to younger audiences, and screens are available for patients who enjoy the distraction. Our team is deliberately selected for both their technical skill and their soft skills – how they work with others, how they interact with children, and how patient and supportive they can be to the families we treat.

Our practice treats many children of all ages as well as those with spectrum disorders, sensory disorders, or other special needs. Whether these children are being seen for the first time or the twentieth, they will be greeted with a smile. We encourage parents and caregivers of children to bring a favourite stuffy or pair of headphones to help them feel at home in a new environment. We know that dental appointments for kids can be a source of stress for parents and kids alike. Our team will help parents breathe a sigh of relief that their special boy or girl is in very capable hands with our team and is going to be just fine. (Don’t worry, Mom – we’ve got something in our ‘bag of tricks’ for almost every situation, and once we find out what works best for your child, it will be noted in their chart and will become routine practice for their visits).
