A lifetime of smiles starts with a good foundation

Healthy smiles are an important part of your child’s development all the way through their teenage years and into adulthood but it’s not always easy to juggle that busy family lifestyle. Between work, school and everything else, sometimes it feels like you can’t catch a break.

We want your trips to the dentist to be as smooth and effortless as possible. We would be happy to accommodate your busy family with flexible hours and appointments that are grouped together.

As your child grows up, they’ll pass many dental care milestones including their first appointment, losing their baby teeth, getting their adult teeth and one day coming to the dentist by themselves to continue their routine dental care. We can’t wait to be there for each new step.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your child will start to cut their first teeth at around 6 months. It is recommended that children visit the dentist by the age of 1 or within 6 months of getting their first tooth. If you suspect something might be wrong or your child might be experiencing discomfort or pain, please book an appointment as soon as possible. It’s never too late for a child to have their first dental appointment.

Baby teeth are no less important than adult teeth. Parents should understand that baby teeth do so much more than hold space in the jaws for permanent teeth. Children’s teeth can permanently affect how their face appears, how they smile and how often they smile. Children who are free to develop confidence and smile big in their early years tend to hang on to those habits. Dental pain, even mild pain that children learn to normalize, will have a lasting negative impact on children’s eating habits including how they chew, what kind of food they prefer and how much food they eat.

The length of the appointment will depend on the needs of the child and how cooperative they’re feeling during the exam. That being said, an appointment typically lasts about one hour.

Your toddler, child or teen should come to the dentist as frequently as you do. We recommend a checkup and cleaning every 6 months unless otherwise specified. If your child has a tooth or jaw ache if you notice them rubbing or nursing their jaw a lot or if you notice them avoiding hard or cold foods please book an appointment sooner.

A cavity is a hole in the tooth that gets bigger with time. A cavity may or may not hurt or cause sensitivity. It’s important to get cavities repaired before they become more serious or lead to infection, even in baby teeth! Cavities are caused by bacteria and dental plaque and made worse by sugary or acidic foods and drink. Some people are more prone to cavities than others.

Your mouth isn’t just your teeth. It’s a whole system including teeth, tongue, gums, cheeks, glands, ligaments, joints, bone and more. When one aspect of your oral health sugars, your whole mouth suffers. Swollen itchy, sore or bleeding gums can be an early indicator of a much more serious problem.

We understand how hectic family life can be! We can serve the whole gang by booking multiple appointments side-by-side. Please give us a call and we would be happy to accommodate you.

Google Verified Patient Reviews

I have been going to Eastview Dental for about 2 years now and I would highly recommend them. I have had to have a couple of dental procedures done and have never had any problems. I always have problems with needles and you would never know it from the needles I have been given by the dentist. Never hurts in that spot the next day. I would recommend this practice to family and friends.

Shawn was an amazing help today! I had my permanent retainer broken and needed a quick fix. Same day appointment and was quick and efficient. Clear communication and really explained everything for me. Took into consideration my requests and fixed what i asked! Thanks for a great visit. Would reccomend Shawn.

My family and I have been going to Eastview Dental for years. There was never a visit that I ever left there unsatisfied or unhappy. The staff are all amazing. They treat everyone with respect and make you feel like a family. Would recommend this dental practice to anyone I know.

I am a new patient at Eastview dental and I have had nothing but a good experience here so far! From the moment I walked in, the friendly and welcoming staff made me feel at ease. The ladies working at the front always greet you with a smile and are friendly and helpful. They take the time to explain everything, answer all my questions, and make sure I’m comfortable throughout the entire process. The office is modern, clean, and well-organized. I’m glad I chose this dentist to come to when I was searching.

Eastview has been nothing but incredible and accommodating. They are extremely helpful, they work with your benefits, and without they still try to work with you to figure out a plan. It is the one dental office that I have been to in Barrie, where I feel comfortable going to. It is a dental office that I recommend everyone goes to!
