Making Your Childs Experience Positive
Treatment at the dental office can be scary. Dr. Mangat has professional training in pediatric behavior guidance to help your child feel comfortable at every appointment.
She utilizes the effective “Tell-Show-Do” method which explains what will be done, demonstrates how and then conducts the procedure. She uses modelling of the childs' siblings or peers to reduce the fear of the unknown and make the experience relatable.
Dr. Mangat has developed a “two-step” freezing technique where patients feel little to no pain during injections, increasing visit confidence quickly.
What would a visit to the dentist be without the reward! Your child will receive a fun and functional bag of goodies. Plus Dr. Mangat has developed a unique child loyalty and rewards program through their app. Each visit earns a virtual stamp. Once you have enough you exchange them for a gift card to businesses popular with kids. Check it out on the Ethos Dental Studio app today!

Q | How do I reduce fear of the dentist in my child?
A | Fear and anxiety about the unknown, including going to the dentist, is normal. Here are few tips to help your child before going.
Q | How do I get my child to cooperate at the dentist?
A |
When your dentist is properly trained in pediatric dentistry they will have proven techniques to help. Your dentist is your partner so you are never alone. Try and avoid telling them not to be afraid. Try asking them about why they are afraid and let them know the dentist is very good at what they do. The dentist will explain to them what they are going to do and will answer questions they may have.
Q | What if my child cries at the dentist?
A | If your child is crying or screaming the dentist may be able to offer solutions including a mild sedative. Talk to the dentist before hand to see how they approach situations such as this and explore the options available. Being prepared before hand allows you and your dentist to have a plan.
Q | Should I be with my child during treatment?
A | Your dentist will provide direction and at times may ask that you remain by their side and sometimes request they stay alone to build their confidence in going to the dentist.
