Why Baby Teeth Matter

By the age of 3, most children will have their full set of 20 baby teeth. These teeth are crucial for:

01

Chewing and proper nutrition

02

Clear speech development

03

Holding space for adult teeth

04

Building good oral care habits

Although they eventually fall out, baby teeth need the same care and attention as adult teeth.

Children’s Dental Treatments We Offer

Dental Check-Ups for Children

We recommend regular check-ups every 6 months. These quick visits allow us to monitor development, spot any early signs of decay, and offer preventive guidance.

Fillings for Children

Tooth decay in children is common but treatable. If cavities are found, we gently clean and fill the tooth using tooth-coloured material to protect it and reduce discomfort.

Fissure Sealants

The back teeth often have deep grooves where food and bacteria collect. Fissure sealants are a protective layer painted over these grooves to prevent decay. They’re painless, quick, and highly effective.

Fluoride Varnish

We may recommend fluoride varnish for extra protection against tooth decay. It’s brushed onto the teeth and helps strengthen enamel.

Children’s Dentistry FAQs

Yes. All essential dental care for children under 18 is free on the NHS. This includes exams, fillings, fluoride treatments, and more. Cosmetic treatments are not included.

Stay positive and treat it like a fun, normal event. Avoid using words like “hurt” or “needle.” Read picture books about the dentist or play pretend visits to help them feel comfortable.

Brush their teeth twice daily, avoid sugary drinks and snacks, and supervise brushing until they’re about 7 years old. Book check-ups every 6 months.
