Every great dental visit starts with the standard checkup and clean. We understand that children are particularly susceptible to dental anxiety, which is why we go the extra mile to ensure the kids feel supported. As we examine their mouths and clean their teeth using the EMS Airflow tooth-cleaning system, we distract them with Bluetooth headphones and TV. We strive to make children and teens feel comfortable here using friendly and gentle guidance.Every great dental visit starts with the standard checkup and clean.

Some dentists leave orthodontic intervention until later childhood or early adolescence. C4AD’s point of difference is that we advocate for early-stage intervention—as early as age five. If a child’s teeth are misshapen or out of alignment, this can disrupt facial, respiratory, or speech development—which can affect confidence. At C4AD, we believe it’s better to address these issues as they arise rather than wait until they’ve begun to cause damage.
If your child has been dreading traditional braces, Damon braces may be their ideal upgrade. Whilst traditional braces use brackets, wires, and elastic ties, Damon braces self-ligate. In other words, there’ll be no need to constantly adjust the braces as its brackets will open and close to hold the archwire in place. Moreover, its natural slide along the archwire means teeth will have a freer range of movement. Damon braces are like traditional braces minus all the fussing and fidgeting—which is often exactly what a busy parent needs.
If your child would prefer to forego braces altogether, clear aligners are likely the answer. Clear aligners are the clear aesthetic winner—other children may not notice they’re there! At C4AD, we stock the Sure Smile and Invisalign brands. Whichever brand you choose, know that you’re selecting a transparent, plastic smile solution modelled from your child’s unique dental impression. Choose clear aligners and we’ll throw in some complimentary teeth-whitening gel!
