PAEDIATRIC DENTISTRY

HERE TO CARE FOR YOUR CHILD

Consistent daily care of your child’s teeth is paramount in preventing cavities and decay. However, regular routine examinations and cleanings are crucial to detecting and addressing any early concerns that may arise.

In BestSmile, we support our profession and recommend that all children see a dentist by their first birthday. This early examination helps:

  • Minimise dental anxiety

  • Promote healthy teeth

  • Reduce tooth decay

  • Intercept orthodontic concerns 

  • Limit complications related to eating or speech problems

Our goals are to establish good habits early and develop a trusting relationship to ensure a positive dental experience now and into the future.

  • Dental Check Up
  • Fluoride Application
  • Scaling & Polishing

Good oral health starts young, so book an appointment for your children now.

Some tips to ease your children's fear

  • Introducing your child to dental visits at a young age establishes a sense of familiarity. As soon as their teeth start to emerge or when they reach their first birthday, whichever comes first, it is recommended to schedule their initial check-up.
  • To alleviate any apprehension, consider arranging a pre-appointment visit with your dentist. This will allow your child to become familiar with the environment and meet our supportive staff, offering a sense of comfort before the actual appointment.
  • During the examination, if your child feels nervous or anxious, holding their hand can provide reassurance. The presence of a parent can help them feel more at ease and relaxed.
