Toddler, tween or teenager – we bring health smiles to children of all ages,
A child should have their first visit to the dentist around 12 months of age. This allows us top check everything is developing as expected and your child’s oral hygiene is OK.
The next few years is critical in building your child’s confidence and comfort in visiting the dentist for regular check-ups and cleans. We may occasionally need to perform preventative or restorative procedures to protect and preserve the health of their teeth. Accidents can happen too, and teeth can sometimes be the unfortunate casualty of a tumble off the scooter or whilst playing sport. Baby teeth are important too, as they are the framework around which adult teeth grow and develop.
When your child reaches 7 years of age, its time for an orthodontic consultation. Not all children need orthodontic treatment at age 7, but having this initial review means we can monitor your child’s development until the optimal time for treatment.
Establishing good oral health habits early on is key. We’re here with you for the journey and when they turn 18, they’ll be ready to transition to a General Dentist for their dental care.
