Pediatric dentistry is specialized in (and dedicated to) protecting the oral health of your child.

As the only children’s dental clinic specializing in pediatric dentistry in Simcoe County, trust us with your child’s teeth! Our top priority is your kid’s dental health and mental health!
Quite simply, pediatric dentistry is dentistry, but catering specifically to children! This form of dental practice is highly specialized and committed to protecting the kid’s oral health, regardless of age. It also takes into account the psychology of children with ways of interacting and engaging with kids in a positive, happy manner.
No matter how good your dentist may be with kids, a pediatric dentist has had specialist training that pertains to both children’s teeth and their mental makeup i.e., child psychology.
Our pediatric dental specialist Dr. Noah Turk for example, has had comprehensive training in behavioural guidance techniques, including completing kids’ dental treatments under oral conscious sedation and general anesthesia. He has also worked a lot with children on the Autism Spectrum and in so doing has developed a deep understanding for utilizing Applied Behavioral Analysis in his every patient interaction.
Furthermore, children should see a pediatric dentist from the age of 6 months and on up through their teens, with visits scheduled every 6 months. Taking into account both the young age of our patients and the frequency which we recommend we see them, it is important that every visit to the dentist be a positive one, in order to ensure repeat, regular visits. Pediatric dental specialists know just how to make this so!
Our primary concern revolves around two things:
To this end, every appointment is dedicated to assessing oral health and proper care, any current oral or dental issues that may present themselves, and catching and fixing any problems pronto!
A visit to our pediatric dental clinic may include some, or all, of the following:
