In line with our preventive approach to dental care, we encourage you to bring the very youngest members of your family to see us too. If you bring your children from an early age, we can keep a watchful eye on their teeth. If they have regular dental check-ups, we can detect and treat tooth decay before it gets worse. Visiting the practice from a young age will help children get to know us and make them less likely to develop a fear of the dentist.
We can apply a fluoride varnish to strengthen enamel and cover the biting surfaces of the back teeth, to protect them from decay. We can also identify orthodontic problems and, if necessary, refer them to an orthodontist who can treat crooked teeth.
