Public Health – Dental Care

Posted October 28, 2019

Free dental care for children and youth (17 and younger) Oral health is an important part of a child’s overall health and wellbeing. If you cannot afford dental care for your child, Public Health has programs that can help. Public Health offers free preventive dental care at locations across Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph for eligible children and youth. Our dental hygienists will check your child’s mouth for oral health concerns, clean their teeth, apply fluoride and sealants and teach them how to brush and floss.
Dr. Baseer Mohammed (“Dr. B”) provides free dental care including check-ups, x-rays and treatment to children and youth enrolled in the Healthy Smiles Ontario program. He is located in Guelph (160 Chancellors Way).
If you have this card and do not have a family dentist, call the Public Health Dental Line at 1-800-265-7293 ext. 2661 to book an appointment. If your child has a dental emergency and you cannot afford their dental care, call Public Health for help.
