Cavities and gum disease can be painful and may lead to serious infections, possibly affecting the growth of adult teeth.  Pain can result in loss of sleep, impact on the ability to eat, and can affect a child’s ability to learn and attend school.  All of these can greatly affect a child’s quality of life.* Add $1,695 for each additional dependant to determine the income level at which a family would qualify for the Healthy Smiles Ontario program.
