Dental Clinic - Strathroy
The Middlesex-London Health Unit (MLHU) has recently opened a new dental clinic in Strathroy Ontario. The new clinic is located in The Shops of Sydenham (at 51 Front Street East). The clinic provides free preventative dental services through the Healthy Smiles Ontario program for children 0 – 17 years of age. If your child has pain, swelling, or suspected cavities and it would be financially difficult for you to pay for dental care, you can book a screening appointment with us to see if your child qualifies for free dental care. If you do not have dental insurance and cannot afford a cleaning for your child, they can be seen at the Strathroy dental clinic for ongoing free preventive oral health services (PREV-OH).

Please contact the Oral Health Team at 519-663-5317 to schedule an appointment or for any inquiry.

Information on Indigenous Services
Health and social services for Indigenous communities are often a combination of traditional healing, primary care, cultural programs, health promotion programs, resource centres, community development initiatives, and social support services. Indigenous peoples are the descendants of the original inhabitants of North America, who identify as First Nations, Métis, or Inuit.

The three First Nations communities closest in proximity to Middlesex County and the City of London are: Chippewa of the Thames First Nation (part of the Anishinaabe); Oneida Nation of the Thames (part of the Haudenosaunee); and, Munsee-Delaware Nation (part of the Leni-Lunaape).
