Your three-year-old is taking his first ride in the chair? Your eight-year-old needs a filling? Your teen is getting orthodontics? Don't worry. We'll help make your children comfortable with their dental care.
First Ride in the Chair
First impressions count. Our goal is to make your child's first visit to the dentist fun and stress-free. Age three.
Your child:
- Tours the dental office
- Rides in the dental chair
- Meets the dentist
The dentist:
- Talks about the dental instruments
- Counts your child's teeth
- Checks for early dental problems
Orthodontics
A healthy bite makes a healthy smile. When your child's teeth are crooked or crowded, orthodontic braces may be the best solution.
At King Ritson Dental, we understand the concerns your child may have about braces. Our dentists have experience explaining the pros and cons of orthodontics to children. We even use coloured elastics to add a bit of fun.
A short term solution creates a long-term smile. Confidence, comfort, and cavity-free check-ups are the payoff.
No-Cavity Club
Kids love our no-cavity club. Each time your child has a cavity-free dental check-up, his or her photo goes on our Wall of Fame. At your next appointment, check out all those winning smiles!
Protect your child's smile.
Dental Sealants
Let's face it. Brushing the back teeth can be tricky for kids. Dental sealants coat the hard-to-reach biting surfaces of your child's back teeth.
- Quick
- Painless
- Affordable
- Fewer cavities
- Long-lasting

Fluoride treatments
Regular fluoride treatments build healthy teeth. Fluoridated toothpastes are a good start but they aren't enough. Today's fluoride treatments protect your child's teeth for a lifetime of smiles.
City water is fluoridated. Well water and bottled water are not. If you drink mostly well water or bottled water, your regular fluoride treatments are especially important. Let your dentist know.
Dental mouthguards
Millions of teeth are lost or damaged every year to sports-related injuries. Prevention is the best solution. Dental mouthguards reduce the risk by 60%.
Ask your dentist to create a custom dental mouthguard for your child.
- Custom fit makes you more likely to wear it.
- More comfortable than boil and bite types
- Fits your teeth snugly
- Doesn't move around in your mouth
- Interferes less with breathing
- Usually ready in just 2 days
A smile is forever. Protect it.
Baby Bottle Syndrome/Nursing Caries
Never put your baby to bed with a bottle of milk, formula or juice. The sugar can cause serious tooth decay in your baby's first teeth. Nursing caries, a similar condition, happens when your breastfed baby nurses for long periods of time.
