At Nuvo Dental Dawlish Centre, we prioritise the well-being of our youngest patients and understand the significance of children’s dental care. Our dedicated team delivers top-tier attention to our young patients. Introducing children to regular dental care early on can foster a lifetime of excellent dental health and a radiant smile.
When should I first bring my child to the dentist?
We advise to bring children to the dentist as early as 6 months old. This early start allows us to monitor tooth development and overall oral health while familiarising them with dental visits.
How frequently should children visit the dentist?
As they grow, the frequency of visits will depend on their dental progress and any emerging issues. Initially, we recommend one or two yearly visits to ensure optimal dental health and proper tooth development.
What treatments are available for children?
Routine check-ups are paramount for all children to establish good oral health habits and address any dental concerns early on. During these visits, we may recommend preventive treatments such as fluoride application or dental fissure sealants, as well as fillings if necessary. As they mature, orthodontic interventions may be suggested to address misalignments or gaps in their teeth.
How can I support my child’s dental health?
Establishing a consistent dental routine at home is crucial for parents or caregivers. Our team is here to assist in developing a tailored routine that meets your child’s specific dental needs and addresses any concerns they may have.
