To ensure that your child’s oral health is optimal, the paediatric dentist will regularly evaluate their wellbeing. In addition to routine check-ups, we can also provide cleaning services and administer fluoride treatments at specific intervals to reduce the risk of decay. Furthermore, our dentists will offer tailored advice on maintaining good oral hygiene and promoting healthy dietary habits from a young age. If your child has any bite issues, our children’s dentists will collaborate closely with our orthodontic team to monitor dental growth and development, providing timely prevention and treatment options.

The fissures and uneven surfaces found on the molars are a haven for remnants of food and bacteria, leading to dental decay if left unchecked. However, fissure sealants can be applied to these nooks and crannies as a barrier against decay. This process is straightforward and painless, involving cleaning the tooth and applying a sealant material in the fissures, then hardening it with a blue light. Whilst these sealants are durable, occasional replacements or touch-ups may be necessary to ensure their continued effectiveness.

While our dentists make every effort to save teeth, certain situations may require tooth removal, such as creating space for orthodontic treatment or addressing severe decay. When this is necessary, our expert team provides careful and gentle treatment to ensure minimal stress and discomfort for your child. We take great care to minimise pain and ensure a smooth and painless procedure.

For patients who cannot remain still during treatment or who have conditions that make treatment intolerable, general anaesthesia may be an option. However, prior to considering this treatment option, we will discuss your suitability and require you to complete a medical questionnaire for assessment.

Professional teeth cleaning services are offered by hygienists through a process known as scaling and polishing. During the appointment, an initial dental hygiene examination is conducted by the hygienist. The examination is followed by scaling of teeth to remove plaque or tartar buildup in areas that cannot be reached by brushing. Subsequently, a clean and polish is performed to remove superficial stains from teeth.
