| Children's dentistry |
We
believe it is vital to help children care for
their teeth from an early age as this will give
their teeth and gums the best possible start and
will help children to be aware of the importance
of their dental health.
We would normally suggest that young children
should initially come along to the surgery whilst
a parent or guardian is attending a routine appointment.
This will allow the child to gradually familiarise
him or herself with the surroundings of the dental
practice. There are children's books in our waiting
room to keep them entertained.
In addition to regular periodic examinations,
special advice or treatments are sometimes required
for children's' teeth.
- If fissures are deep on permanent teeth
then sealants are sometimes required. These
are a very thin plastic coating which is painted
onto the permanent back molars, helping to
prevent decay.
- Diet and cleaning advice may be required.
- As the child's adult teeth grow, straightening
(orthodontics) may sometimes be necessary.
We are able to offer after-school
afternoon appointments. |
