One child never gets cavities, and another seems to get them constantly. At our McPhillips Street clinic, each sibling’s care is planned around that child, not around the family.
Let's find a time
It can seem unfair when two children raised on the same food and the same toothpaste end up with very different dental check-ups. Brothers and sisters often differ in tooth development, habits and risk, and a family’s routine rarely fits them all.
Old Kildonan is in Winnipeg, and families there can bring their children to our clinic on McPhillips Street. We see infants, children and teens, and we treat each as a separate case, so one child’s advice may have little in common with what their sibling hears.

Each child’s recommendations come from their own assessment.
Infants, school-age children and teens can all receive care with us.
Recall timing may vary between brothers and sisters, and that’s normal.
Parents with a spread of ages often find themselves asking very different questions in a single week. The appointment changes as each child moves through childhood.
In the early years, a lot of the attention goes to emerging teeth and to the adult doing the helping.
Teens bring another set of topics, as routines loosen up and independence grows.
Any cleaning, fluoride, sealants or X-rays are recommended for each child individually, based on age and risk.
Your eldest may be done with the chair in no time while your youngest is still making friends with the mirror. Both are fine.
Request your visitWords and explanations change depending on who is climbing into the chair.
The dentist looks at development, teeth and gums to the degree each child is comfortable.
What’s recommended reflects individual risk, even if a sibling received something else.
Expect brushing, diet and habit advice specific to each child, with their own suggested return date.
When you’re looking after several children, details blur together. Write down each child’s concerns separately. And be careful with comparisons at home, since an older sibling’s dramatic retelling can leave a younger one worried.
For any questions on fees or insurance, ask the clinic ahead of time, because they turn on your plan and on the care each child receives.
A treatment room and a consultation room at Winnipeg North Dental.
Being the sibling who cries can feel awful for a child. We don’t measure one against another, and a quick look in the chair can be a real achievement for one child, even if a sister or brother took it all in stride.
Each child sets their own speed, whatever their sibling did earlier.
A toddler and a teen need different explanations, and each gets one that suits them.
Let us know which child is anxious, so that we can plan around them.
Back in a busy house
No single plan will fit everyone in the household. Your little one needs hands-on help, while your older child may need only a nudge, and the advice you get should reflect that.
Adjust your supervision to each child’s age and how independent they really are.
Household food habits affect everyone, so changes here may benefit all of your children.
Keep separate recall dates, since each one depends on that child’s own factors.

Helpful details about pediatric dentistry in Old Kildonan.
Ask our teamYes, ask when you phone (204) 338-3003 or send the form. List each child’s age and needs, and the clinic can tell you what’s possible at McPhillips Street.
Risk is individual. Tooth development, hygiene and habits may all differ between children under one roof, and the dentist can tell you which factors seem to apply.
Not necessarily. Each child’s interval depends on development, cavity risk, hygiene and past treatment, so their return dates may not match.
Keep your own explanation brief and calm, and let us know before the visit. We can take things gradually and explain each step in words your younger child understands.
Often it isn’t. Brushing support and fluoride guidance depend on age and cavity risk, so the amount and approach for a young child can differ from an older one’s.
Tell the clinic about any pain or injury straight away, and phone instead of using the form if a child is hurting. Otherwise, the clinic can talk through timing with you.
With several children at different stages, you may need information on a range of care. These are good places to start.
