What can I expect at my child’s first appointment?
We need to get to know each other at this first visit. We do not want to overwhelm your child. Our goal is to make this first visit as easy as possible, to provide a caring and nurturing environment, and establish trust, as well as assess your child’s co-operation for future appointments. This means waiting until the second visit to perform dental work. At the end of the first visit, we will put together a treatment plan and review which options are right for your child. We can also provide a clear estimate of the cost and take the time to answer any questions you may have regarding treatment needs, cost and insurance. We ask that the child’s parent or legal guardian accompany the patient to the first visit. Please remember to bring your child’s Alberta Health Care card and all insurance information.
