Children

The best time to start bringing children to the dentist is when their teeth start to erupt.

We do not normally expect to find tooth decay at this stage of their lives, but we can give you advice on how to best look after your toddler’s teeth. It also gets the little ones used to seeing a dentist with no trauma associated with the visit. If they have been coming to see us every year since they were toddlers, they are less likely to require significant treatment, but also less likely to be anxious about seeing a dentist once they are teenagers or adults.
