Dental Health Program for children

Oral health is part of our overall health. The Northern Health Children’s Dental Health Program offers services for children aged newborn to 6 years old. We are here to support you and provide resources to help you care for your child’s oral health. Our dental team wants to work with you to ensure your child has a healthy smile.

We offer:

  • Free dental screenings for children (does not replace regular dental office visits)
  • Free fluoride varnish applications for children to help prevent tooth decay
  • Free silver diamine fluoride applications for children to help stop suspected tooth decay
  • Help to families searching for a dental office
  • Dental resources to daycares, preschools, and schools
  • Participation in community health fairs and wellness projects
