Kids Dentistry in Guelph
Our Guelph Dental Office strives to provide your child with friendly, inviting, fun, and relaxed dental care. That all starts with building confidence and trust, for both Parent and child.
It is important for Parents to take their children for their first Dental visit within 6months of the first signs of eruption of a first tooth.
A first visit, or “Ride in the Chair” is meant as a starting point with no pressure (and is complimentary).
At this visit we can gauge how your child is feeling and adjust our experience/treatment accordingly. It’s not realistic to expect healthy future encounters if the first experience a child has at any office involves expectations beyond their means. Proactively seeking positive experiences that can be quick, easy, and inexpensive can lay a foundation of confidence, guidance and support that could last a lifetime. If, in the event your child suffers future dental trauma, pain or if concerns arise, we want them to be equipped to deal with these issues with the least amount of anxiety, and the utmost confidence. Our goal is for your children to be excited about their dental visits and to be proud of having a cavity-free dental Re-care check.

Dental Sealants and Painless Preventative Fillings in Guelph
Sometimes despite proper brushing and flossing, there can still be a chance of developing tooth decay in and around the grooves of your teeth. The tiny fissures and pits on the chewing surfaces and corner cusps of your molar and premolar teeth become susceptible to plaque and tartar build up that may be leading to tooth decay. Dental sealants can be an effective and long-lasting approach to preventing tooth decay and cavities where things appear to be susceptible.
In cases where it is clear surface decay is present in your hard-shell layers of your teeth, and brushing isn’t likely to stop the inevitable destruction of additional sound tooth structure, we can provide a quick, safe and pain-free solution. Preventative white fillings are typically placed painlessly and without the need for freezing. They very quickly restore a tooth to it’s more cleansable self.
Dr. Lansdell can create an appliance that can be worn at times during day, night or for any time these destructive habits may be occurring (although it is commonly referred to as a “Night Guard”).
This appliance not only protects teeth from the strains of grinding, it oftentimes severely curbs, or eliminates the habit altogether.
These appliances are made from a Thermoplastic material that is quite thin and has a memory of the bite surfaces of teeth, providing a custom fit. It is strong and supportive without being bulky and is more tolerated than traditional appliances.
Teeth Grinding Treatment in Guelph
Bruxism is a habit of grinding the teeth (sliding your teeth back and forth over each other).
Clenching can/does occur when top and bottom teeth are tightly held together.
People who Clench/grind their teeth repetitively may at first be unaware, but over time may have one or more of the following symptoms:
- Worn or Cracked Teeth or Fillings
- Headache or Earache
- Jaw Clicking
- Sensitive Teeth
- Sore Jaw
- Frequent Toothaches
- Facial Pain
- Tongue Indentations
- Insomnia
Custom Fitted Sports Mouthguards in Guelph
If you, or your child is active in sports that could cause direct or indirect trauma to their head, mouth and teeth, it’s best to have a properly fitting mouth guard to wear.
At Gordon Street Dental we can create custom mouthguards for children or adults that provide the highest level of comfort and protection for an active lifestyle.
An impression (or scan) of the teeth is all that is needed to fabricate his/her one-of-a-kind, customized sports mouth guard. It is made with thin, flexible plastic that is molded and hardened over a model of the teeth. The thinness of our custom fitted sports mouthguards allows for easy breathing, communication, and still provides a fit that stays in place.
You can even select a unique design for the guard!
Snoring Prevention in Guelph
Snoring can be a condition that affects several members of the Family both directly and indirectly. We all know how annoying the sounds can be! However, daytime drowsiness, and a lack of restful sleep can have a host of other more serious side effects.
Snoring usually occurs when your airway constricts, causing air to be inhaled at an increased speed and pressure, making the soft tissues in the back of your mouth vibrate and produce that loud, annoying
sound.
Depending on your current condition, Gordon Street Dental’s Custom Snoring & Sleep Apnea Appliances can prove to be excellent alternatives to CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy.
The SUAD and SomnoDent dental appliances are premium dental sleep appliances developed for the treatment of snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. These appliances are adaptable, comfortable, effective and extremely durable. They can be used as an alternative to CPAP machines or in conjunction with CPAP therapy.
By simply wearing either one of these appliances while sleeping, your lower jaw (mandible) will be moved forward into a comfortable position, allowing relaxation of the tissues at the back of your throat and ensuring the base of your tongue does not collapse and block your airway, giving you a safe and soundless sleep.
You are only one appointment away from ensuring your oral health is on track!
Let us provide solutions for your family’s Dental needs!
