Helping Kids Feel Calmer at Dental Visits
Gentle Dental is a new digital tool designed to help children manage anxiety before and during dental visits. Developed in collaboration with researchers at Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, this innovative program has shown promising results.
In the clinical trial, children who used Gentle Dental completed challenging dental visits 35% more successfully than those using traditional approaches. Our research suggests that using Gentle Dental for 5-7 minutes daily over five days before a dental visit may help many children feel calmer and better prepared.
However, it’s important to remember that results vary for every child. Not all children will experience the same benefits. That’s why we’re inviting parents to participate in this trial and share feedback to help improve both their child’s experience and that of future families.
