Dental care for children includes checking tooth development, assessing decay and gum health, and providing age-appropriate oral care advice. Contact the practice to discuss your child’s needs, appointment availability, fees and any benefit eligibility.
Tell the dental team about your child’s previous experiences, concerns and additional support needs. The approach and pace of the visit can be discussed before examination or treatment.
The team can explain the visit in age-appropriate language and invite questions from children and parents.
An examination helps assess the teeth, gums and development. Any recommended treatment will be discussed with the parent or carer.
Cleaning may be recommended based on the child's oral health and ability to manage plaque at home.
Fluoride treatment or fissure sealants may be considered according to individual decay risk. These measures do not replace daily oral care or guarantee that decay will be prevented.
Ask for advice about brushing, cleaning between teeth and food and drink choices appropriate to your child's age and needs.
