Start Early for a Lifetime of Smiles
Many mums and dads wonder when it’s the right time to bring their child in for the first visit. The short answer is as soon as their first teeth appear. These early visits are especially important because they help your child feel comfortable visiting the dentist.
The Importance of Early Orthodontic Checks
Our dentists can also identify orthodontic needs early, making future treatment for kids less invasive and more straightforward. Our team will monitor your child’s growth and development to catch any concerns early, giving you priceless peace of mind and setting your child up for a healthy, more confident smile.
Tips for Caring for Your Child’s Teeth
By building good dental habits early, kids can enjoy a healthier smile for life. Here are some ways you can help:
- Brush twice a day with a small amount of child-friendly toothpaste.
- Supervise brushing to make sure your little one is using the proper technique.
- Consider using fun flossers designed for kids to make flossing easier.
- Minimise sugary treats and encourage drinking water after meals.
- Limit dummy use to avoid dental issues later on.
Breaking Thumb-Sucking Habits
While thumb-sucking is incredibly common among young kids, prolonged habits can affect how their teeth grow. We can offer helpful guidance and tips to help your child stop thumb-sucking in a supportive and successful way.
