Foundations for a Lifetime with a Healthy Smile
A healthy smile is a crucial part of your child’s growth, extending from childhood through their teenage years and into adulthood. We know it’s not easy to manage a busy family life—with work, school, and other commitments often competing for your time. That’s why we aim to make your dental visits as convenient and stress-free as possible. At Breslau Dental, we offer flexible hours and the ability to book appointments together for family members, helping to simplify your life.
Dr. Mang and the team are excited to be a part of your child’s dental journey, from their very first check-up to the moment they lose their baby teeth, transition to adult teeth, and eventually take responsibility for their own dental health. We look forward to celebrating each of these milestones with you and ensuring your child continues to have a radiant, healthy smile.

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
Children typically begin to develop their first teeth around 6 months of age. We recommend scheduling their first dental visit by age 1, or within six months of their first tooth appearing. If you notice any discomfort, pain, or other issues, don’t hesitate to book an appointment. It’s never too late to start regular dental check-ups for your child.
Baby teeth play a vital role beyond just holding space for adult teeth. They significantly affect your child’s facial development, their smile, and their confidence. Healthy baby teeth are crucial for developing positive eating habits, as dental discomfort can negatively impact how a child chews and their food preferences. Early dental care helps instil confidence and promotes a lifelong healthy smile.
The duration of a dental appointment at Breslau Dental varies based on the child’s needs and their cooperation during the visit. Typically, an appointment lasts about one hour.
Just like adults, we recommend that children visit the dentist for a check-up and cleaning every six months. If your child experiences toothache, jaw discomfort, or starts avoiding certain foods, it might be time to come in sooner.
A cavity is a deteriorating area on a tooth that forms a hole and can grow larger over time. While some cavities may not immediately cause pain or sensitivity, they can lead to more serious issues or infections if not addressed promptly. Cavities are caused by bacteria and plaque and are exacerbated by sugary or acidic foods and beverages.
Oral health encompasses more than just teeth; it includes the gums, tongue, cheeks, and all other supporting structures in the mouth such as glands, ligaments, and bones. Maintaining each part is crucial as problems in one area can affect the entire oral health system. But early signs of issues like swollen, itchy, or bleeding gums can indicate more serious health problems.
We know coordinating appointments for the whole family can be challenging. At Breslau Dental, we offer the convenience of booking multiple appointments side-by-side to better serve your family’s needs. Give us a call, and we’ll arrange a time that works for everyone.
