Children’s Dental Checkups Overview
Routine dental visits will help with dental anxiety and fear or phobia later in life which can be debilitating and lead to severe problems.
We recommended that their first visit should be when their first tooth appears, this is only for them to become familiar with our practice and our team, not for any dental treatment to be carried out, but is more of a play and a ride on the chair.
We suggest, that your child’s first visit be incorporated with your own check-up, as seeing you have your teeth examined helps them become more relaxed and happy to have a ride on the chair and have their teeth examined. Oral health is critical for your child’s growth and development, general health, and self-esteem.
Visiting the dentist at an early age is important so our dentists can provide your child with dental education, demonstrating tooth-brushing techniques and sealing teeth to limit plaque buildup. Our examination includes an orthodontic assessment and any required referrals if needed.
Make an appointment today to help your child develop a positive relationship with the dentist from an early age, setting them up for a lifetime of good habits.
