Although primary teeth are only present during early childhood years, they play an important role in the development of your child’s smile and long-term oral health. It is important to note that decay progresses at a faster rate in children’s teeth, as they are softer than adult teeth, highlighting the importance of children’s dentistry treatments. In the long term, children who experience decay are much more likely to develop dental problems as they get older, which may contribute to other serious conditions. This can be prevented by simply maintaining good oral care.

We try to make children’s visits as relaxing and fun as possible. Our experienced dental professionals encourage them to be interactive by showing them the dental instruments and letting them know exactly what they are looking for and why. It is really important that you assist your children in protecting their teeth and gums. Encourage them to brush twice daily, eat a well-balanced diet, floss daily and ensure they consume reasonable amounts of water. Furthermore, make brushing a fun activity, supervising your child’s brushing technique until they get the hang of it.
