Filice Dental Arts is committed to your dental health; 
this involves a team approach to ensure maximum benefit for patients of all ages.

Adult Hygiene

Our practice recognizes that even the best professional dental care needs to be teamed with the patient's own contributions to hygiene and health. Consequently, we forge a plan wherein adults work towards effective self or involved care with systems befitting their lifestyle. The ultimate goal is to reduce one's future reliance on dental practices.

Based on the presence or lack of gum disease, we can determine what it will take to maintain your oral health at home. Clinically, you may require professional scaling to begin this process. Lifestyle and systematic problems can be contributing factors for gum disease. We can assist you in learning how to control these risks--an important aspect of self care.

Family Centred Care

Filice Dental Arts extends the innovative from its established role in the hospital to maximize your family's experience with the dentist. This program is designed to address the changes children and their families experience as a result of health related issues and to cope effectively with these changes. It is based on the philosophy that one cannot treat the child without working with the family as well--we refer to this as "family -centred care".  Benefits include:

• specialized self-care appointments geared towards helping your child become effective in caring for their own oral health.
• sensitivity to the individual and developmental needs of the child.
•  parental involvement, especially since younger children lack the manual dexterity to clean all their teeth without some assistance.
• preparing you and your child to ensure that your child understands and copes well with all facets of the dental experience including any procedures that are performed on their teeth. This creates an overall positive lifelong experience for your child.
