Happy children, happy parents

Real experiences shared by families about their visits with our team.

We had an excellent experience with Dr. He at the NW branch of Children Medical Dental.

Dr. He was incredibly professional, calm, and reassuring throughout the entire process. He explained everything clearly and made me feel confident and at ease. The procedure went very smoothly, and I truly appreciate the care and precision he showed.

I highly recommend Dr. He to any parents looking for a skilled and compassionate pediatric dental specialist.

A gentle beginning

Why Your Child's First Visit Matters

A positive first visit helps your child feel comfortable, builds trust, and gives you clear answers about their dental health.

Good to know

Common Concerns We Hear (And Why It’s Worth Talking About)

Clear answers to help you feel prepared for your child’s dental care.

At what age should my child first see a dentist?

We recommend bringing your child in by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. Early visits help your child get comfortable and allow us to catch any concerns early.

What if my child is scared or anxious about the dentist?

This is very common. We take a calm, step-by-step approach to help children feel safe. If needed, we also offer options like nitrous oxide or sedation to make treatment easier.

How do I know if something is wrong with my child’s teeth?

Some issues aren’t easy to spot at home. Regular visits help us catch things like early decay, crowding, or bite changes before they become bigger problems.

Do you accept insurance or government programs?

Yes. We accept most insurance plans and offer direct billing. We also accept Alberta Child Health Benefits (ACHB) and NIHB.

How often should my child visit the dentist?

Most children should come in every 6 months for checkups and cleanings. This helps prevent cavities and keeps their development on track.

What happens if my child has a cavity?

We’ll walk you through the options and recommend the simplest, most comfortable way to treat it. Our goal is to fix the issue early and keep the experience positive for your child.

Will my child need braces later on?

Not always, but we monitor growth and alignment as your child develops. If we see anything early, we’ll let you know and guide you on the next steps.

What if we’ve missed dental visits for a while?

That’s okay. It happens more often than you think. We’ll meet you where you’re at and help get your child back on track without judgment.
