We aim for children always to have a fun and pleasant dental experience and never to associate going to the dentist as being ‘scary’. We love to educate children on how to look after their teeth and gums and the importance of maintaining healthy teeth for life.
We offer all general dental services to children, including the following:
Baby teeth are just as important as adult teeth. They help with speech development and eating and help hold the space for the permanent teeth to come through in the proper position. Daily care is needed to prevent tooth decay. The following tips will help ensure your child maintains healthy teeth:
Fissure Sealants are protective coatings applied to the grooves of the permanent back molars to prevent cavities from developing. The best time to apply fissure sealants is soon after the permanent molar teeth appear, around the age of 6. The procedure is painless and non-invasive. Sealants can be applied to any teeth with deep grooves that may be vulnerable to decay. They can be easily repaired or replaced occasionally as they can wear down, but this will be monitored at every check-up.
It is common for toddlers and children to bump their teeth. It is important that you do not try to reposition a displaced baby tooth as it may damage the permanently developing tooth underneath. If there is any bleeding, apply pressure with a clean cloth or gauze. It is essential to seek professional advice as soon as possible.
For quality general dentistry services and let us help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.
