What can my child expect when they visit?
A routine dental check-up is a great way to introduce your child to the dentist. This appointment is spent building a relationship with your child and familiarising them with dentistry in a fun and playful manner. They might even get to play with the buttons and go for a ride in the chair! After the appointment, they can pick a treat from our treasure chest!
This is all about making them feel relaxed and comfortable in the clinic and building a trusting relationship with their dentist and dental assistant.
Should your child need dental treatments, we’ll handle them in a caring and nurturing way at future appointments. Treatments include:
- Fillings and crowns
- Fissure sealants
- Mouthguards
- Orthodontics
When should my child first visit the dentist?
The Australian Dental Association (ADA) advises that your child should start visiting the dentist when their first baby tooth emerges or by their first birthday, whichever comes first.
While it might seem early, baby teeth are essential as they act as ‘space savers’ for adult teeth, ensuring proper alignment. Losing baby teeth too soon due to poor oral hygiene can result in losing the necessary space for adult teeth, leading to potential issues with their eruption and placement.
Regular dental visits from an early age help maintain your child’s oral health and pave the way for a healthy smile.
