Gentle Teeth Cleaning for Kids in Leduc
Pediatric Dental Cleanings in Leduc
Protecting tiny teeth with expert care and a gentle touch.
At Orchard Family Dental, we believe pediatric dental cleanings are just as essential as adult care. Our kid-friendly hygienists provide professional cleanings that remove plaque, tartar, and harmful bacteria—helping to prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath while supporting proper oral development.
Children often miss certain areas while brushing and flossing. That’s where we come in. After a gentle yet thorough cleaning, our team carefully examines your child’s oral health, monitors baby and adult tooth development, and ensures proper alignment. We also provide helpful tips and guidance for parents to reinforce great habits at home.

What’s the Cost of Kids' Teeth Cleaning in Leduc?
Affordable preventive care that protects your child’s smile for years to come.
Routine pediatric dental cleanings are one of the most effective ways to prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health concerns. At Orchard Family Dental, we work with most insurance plans, and many families pay little to nothing out of pocket—sometimes as low as $0 to $50 per visit. Insurance typically covers biannual check-ups unless advised otherwise due to special dental needs.
For families without insurance, cleanings usually range between $120 and $300, depending on the complexity of the visit, whether it’s your child’s first appointment, or if it’s been a while since their last cleaning.
What Affects the Cost of Your Child’s Dental Cleaning?
- The condition of their teeth, gums, and overall oral health
- Whether new X-rays are needed
- Preventive treatments like fluoride or sealants
- The level of individual care and time required
- Any advanced dental tools or materials used

Dental cleanings and check-ups are typically recommended every six months, though some children benefit from more frequent visits. Waiting longer than a year between appointments is not advised to ensure optimal oral health.
