Pediatric Dentistry FAQs

When should my child first visit the dentist?

A first visit is usually advised when the first tooth appears or around the first birthday. Early visits help prevent problems and help your child feel at ease.

Why are baby teeth important?

Baby teeth help children chew and speak, and they hold space for adult teeth. Untreated decay in baby teeth can cause pain, infection and problems for the adult teeth.

How are children's dental visits handled?

We explain each step in simple words, go at the child's pace and keep parents involved. Children often settle in better with repeat visits.

How often should my child have a check-up?

Most children should visit every six months. We may suggest more frequent visits if your child has a high risk of cavities.

Do baby teeth need fillings?

Yes, if a baby tooth has a cavity. Treating it early stops the decay from spreading and protects the adult tooth underneath.

What are dental sealants?

Sealants are thin protective coatings placed on the chewing surfaces of back teeth. They keep food and bacteria out of the deep grooves, which lowers the risk of cavities.

Is fluoride safe for children?

Yes, when it is used in the right amount for the child's age. We apply fluoride professionally and advise you on the right toothpaste.

How can I prevent cavities in my child?

Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste in the right amount, limit sweets and sugary drinks, and keep up regular check-ups. Help young children brush until they can do it well on their own.

What should I do if my child has a toothache or a knocked-out tooth?

Call the clinic at once. If a permanent tooth is knocked out, handle it by the crown only, keep it moist in milk and come in immediately.

Can you advise on braces for my child?

Yes. We assess your child's teeth and bite and advise on the right time for treatment. You can read more about braces and aligners at our clinic.
