kids dental care

At Roseneath Dental Care, we believe it is vital to help your children to care for their teeth from a very early age. This gives their teeth and gums the best possible start, and helps your kids to be aware of the importance of their dental care.

 

We offer routine examinations to children from the age of 2½ - at this age they are old enough to start learning about oral healthcare and to take pride in their teeth.

 

We have special oral health sessions for kids, which are run by our hygienist and teach children about caring properly for their teeth and following a healthy diet.

 

Many children need to have orthodontic (tooth straightening) treatment, and we keep a close eye on the way our younger patients’ teeth are developing so we can intervene at an early stage. This can often avoid the need for extractions.

 

We can also provide fissure sealants for children. These are a very thin coating which is painted onto back teeth, helping to prevent decay.
