Paediatric Dentistry

Our paediatric dentistry services are designed to provide gentle, comprehensive care tailored to the unique needs of children.
Our Paediatric Dentistry Services
First Dental Visit
We recommend scheduling your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears, whichever comes first. During this initial appointment, we focus on making your child comfortable while performing a gentle examination to check for early signs of dental issues. Our friendly team will introduce your child to the dental environment, making it a positive experience.Regular Checkups
Regular dental checkups are essential for monitoring your child’s oral health and development. We recommend scheduling checkups every six months to ensure any potential issues are caught early. During these visits, we perform comprehensive oral exams, including checking for cavities, monitoring tooth development, and providing preventative care.Preventative Care for Children
Dental Cleanings
Professional cleanings are crucial for maintaining your child’s oral health. Our hygienists use gentle techniques to clean your child’s teeth, removing plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing might miss. These cleanings help prevent cavities and gum disease, keeping your child’s smile healthy.Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride treatments are an effective way to strengthen your child’s developing teeth and prevent cavities. We apply a safe, concentrated fluoride gel or varnish to your child’s teeth, which helps to remineralise the enamel and protect against decay. These treatments are quick, painless, and highly beneficial for long-term oral health.Sealants
Dental sealants provide an extra layer of protection for your child’s teeth. Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where cavities are most likely to develop. They act as a barrier, preventing food particles and bacteria from getting stuck in the grooves of the teeth. Sealants are especially effective for children and can last for several years.Common Paediatric Dental Issues
Tooth Decay
Tooth decay is one of the most common dental issues in children. It can be caused by sugary foods and drinks, improper brushing, and lack of regular dental visits. We offer a range of treatment options for cavities, including fillings and crowns, to restore your child’s teeth and prevent further decay.Tooth Eruption and Development
