Building a Lifetime of Smiles Begins with a Strong Foundation
Help your children embark on the journey of excellent oral hygiene from an early age, and keep an eye on their development as they blossom into their radiant smiles. We recognize the complexities and joys of caring for a family, and we know that children require special attention. A healthy smile is a crucial aspect of childhood, so let’s guide them on the correct path with advice tailored to their unique needs.
Getting Ready For Your First Appointment
Encourage open conversations with your child about their upcoming dental appointment. The primary goal of this first visit is to create a comfortable, enjoyable atmosphere and foster a positive bond with the dentist. Uncertainty about what lies ahead can sometimes lead to anxiety. To ease this, here’s a rundown of what your child can anticipate in their initial dental appointment:
Talk and Listen
We’ll engage both you and your child in conversation, clarifying our procedures and the reasons behind them, and introduce your child to some of the instruments we use. Our approach involves using child-friendly language and demystifying any dental jargon to ensure your child feels as relaxed and confident as possible. You’ll see, there’s nothing frightening about us at all.
Gently Examine
We’ll conduct a careful examination of your child’s gums, tongue, teeth, and general oral health. This exam aims to identify any areas of concern or spots that might require additional care at home. We’ll offer tailored advice for home dental care and make a note to focus on these specific areas during your child’s next visit.
Educate
We may request your child to demonstrate their tooth brushing technique, after which we’ll provide gentle guidance on how to enhance their brushing routine at home. We’re also here to address any questions you or your child might have about dental health.
