Children’s Dentistry
We believe that positive early dental experiences are key to lifelong oral health.
A Gentle Introduction
We take time to build trust and ensure children feel relaxed and confident. Start bringing your children in as soon as their first teeth erupt for the best results!
Supporting Parents
We work closely with parents to provide guidance on brushing, diet and habits such as thumb sucking.
NHS Treatment
Children aged under 18, or under 19 and in full-time education, are eligible for free NHS treatment with us.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child first visit the dentist?
We recommend visiting as soon as their first teeth erupt to begin building a relationship with us and normalising dental visits.
How can I help my child avoid cavities?
Minimise sugar intake in the diet, good brushing habits (parental or supervised brushing up to age 7), use of fluoride and regular check-ups.
Are fluoride treatments safe?
Yes. Evidence-based data suggests that fluoride use is very effective at preventing tooth decay. The tiny quantities of fluoride in toothpaste and varnish do not significantly affect general health.
What if my child is nervous?
From start to finish, we take a gentle, friendly approach to help children feel relaxed and confident. Our dentists are experienced with working with children and our paediatric patients usually enjoy coming to visit us!
