Pediatric Dentist Vancouver – Services

At Kits Family Dental in Vancouver BC, we believe that early prevention and education is key.  It can lead to a lifetime of healthy smiles. A visit to a pediatric dentist Vancouver early on is important.

Our kids dentists in Vancouver, BC are Dr. Robin Mak, Dr. Sakura Iwagami and Dr. Courtney Butler.

At Kits Family Dental, we love seeing even the youngest patients. We recommend that you bring your child for their first visit after their first teeth erupt, at around 6 months of age. We make sure these early visits are lots of fun, so we can help your child develop a positive attitude towards dental visits.

The first visit examination for children under 3 years old is FREE!

Also our page Helpful Tips For Parents is a helpful for parents to understand what to expect regarding dental care for young children. Also to get some ideas on how to work with the dentist to ensure the child’s visits are positive.
