Infant (0-1 Years)

Oral health care should starts even before the first tooth sprouts in infants, which are very much neglected in Malaysia. Bring your infant to dental clinic enable them to adapt to a friendly dental environment, familiarize with the dentist for future dental management. Parents are advised to bring their babies to the dentist once the first tooth erupted (usually around 6 months old) for check up and parents will be educated on how to take care for the teeth. Having your babies into your family dentistry plan for regular and up-to-date oral health care ensures your child develops a good oral habits and motivate them enjoy going to the dentist.

Toddlers & Gradeschooler (1-12 years)

It is important to care for your child’s teeth right from the start. Teeth cleaning alone isn’t a guarantee against tooth decay but with practicing healthy habits can prevent or reduce tooth decay (cavities) in children in the long run. Routine visit to clinic allowing children to adapt to clinic setting will reduce the unnecessary association with fear and trauma. Some children at this age may experience some amount of crowding or irregularities with the way the permanent teeth come into the mouth, if there is any misalignment of the teeth or jaw, dentist will advise if there is a need for corrective treatment too.

Teenager & Young Adults (13-20 years)

It is important to continue to practice healthy habits during the teen years and continue to have routine visits to the dentist. Early and frequent screening on oral health among young adults helps to detect untreated diseases and risk habits which prompt for early intervention. Dentist can educate teenagers on the adopting healthy lifestyles, the danger of smoking tobacco and vaping towards in preventing dental caries, periodontal diseases and which may lead to further diseases. Orthodontic treatment (braces) usually are introduced to teenagers at this age group if needed.

Adults (21-59 years)

Oral health is essential to general health and well-being. Diseases and conditions of the mouth have a direct impact on the health of the entire body. Dental caries (tooth decay), periodontal (gum) disease and tooth loss are the common issues seen in adults. We dentist are here to help to maintain good oral health, treat your dental issue and restore oral function. Dental health usually associate closely with your general health, therefore, taking care of your oral health is an investment in your overall health.

Senior (60 year above)

Taking care of your teeth and gums as you get older can prevent problems like toothaches, tooth decay (cavities), and tooth loss. Oral health-related quality of life defines that oral condition will have substantial effects on the quality of life. A healthy mouth also makes it easier for you to eat well and enjoy food.
