Some children experience developmental issues with their teeth and jaw that require specialist care from an orthodontist. These problems can include a poor bite, misaligned or overcrowded teeth and jaw deformities like an underbite or overbite. Early diagnosis and treatment prevent more significant problems later in life. Your dentist can identify early signs of these dental issues and recommend that your child see an orthodontist if needed. Orthodontic treatment usually takes place between the ages of 7 and 13. Orthodontics involves wearing braces or aligners to move teeth into a straighter position. In cases of overcrowding, depending on the type of braces selected, the dentist may remove some teeth to create space for others to move into the proper alignment. Some children may feel too self-conscious about tearing braces to agree to an orthodontic treatment plan.
Don’t use sweetened milk in your child’s bottle, as these contain harmful sugars that attack the young tooth enamel. Once they’re able, ensure your children get into the habit of cleaning their teeth twice a day and ensure the toothpaste contains fluoride, a mineral that strengthens their teeth and helps prevent decay.
Give your toddler a toothbrush to play with in the bathtub, and encourage them to brush their teeth.
To ensure they clean their teeth correctly, have your child stand with their back to you and their head tilted backwards. You can reach all their teeth and floss in between any teeth touching, making tooth brushing fun.
Sing songs while you brush together.
Help them count their teeth while brushing and read stories about visits to the dentist.
Give your kids a healthy, balanced diet and minimise their exposure to sugary foods and drinks.
As your child grows and their adult teeth begin to emerge, your dentist can apply dental fissure sealants, a solution painted onto the grooves of the teeth to protect them and reduce the risk of tooth decay. Sealants provide a flat surface on the molars so your child can easily clean their teeth.
A 5% , 10% or 15% discount is given for one or more members paying together on a single direct debit.
Children’s dental needs change as they grow. We provide continuous care through every stage of development:
We work closely with parents to provide advice that supports home care, from brushing routines to managing diet and reducing sugar intake.
Good oral health in childhood sets the stage for a lifetime of strong teeth and healthy gums. Preventive care helps avoid decay, misalignment, and dental anxiety later in life.
