Information for Patients

The Student Dental Clinic for Pediatric Dentistry at the Montreal Children’s Hospital provides dental care free of charge for children under 10, who are not covered by medicare (RAMQ). The clinic treats mostly refugee and new immigrant children who do not yet have access to dental care due to financial constraints and lack of insurance. All care is provided by dental students in their last year of training supervised by Montreal Children's Hospital Staff Dentists.

The clinic is entirely free of charge for patients and is run through philanthropic donations to the Faculty of Dentistry.  

 

Treatments Offered

  • Complete dental examinations
  •  Radiographs
  • Regular and deep cleanings
  • Fluoride treatments
  • Fillings
  • Extractions

Complex endodontic treatment (root canals) and orthodontic treatment (braces) are not provided.

Preference is given to children younger than 10 years who do not benefit from Medicare (RAMQ) coverage, but children up to the age of 12 may receive treatment if space is available. Many refugees and new immigrants benefit from the services offered. Children with special needs due to medical or behavioral issues may be referred to the regular hospital clinic.
