Childrens Dental Care
We believe it is essential to educate children on the importance of taking care of their teeth from an early age. We are committed to continuing dental education and keeping abreast of changes in modern dentistry. We strive for excellence in oral health care for all our younger patients.
The focus of children''s care
- Prevention - a continuing programme of instruction in dental health tailored to the patient''s age.
- Education and Encouragement - patients will readily assume greater responsibility for their own dental health as they become more mature. Targets are set using child friendly oral health score© and wellbeing score© to enable patients to work towards a tangible goal.
- Dentist supervision - giving patients the highest possible standard of clinical expertise.
The Emphasis is on Fun
Learning about teeth can really be made fun; our preventative unit offers excellent learning tools to teach young ones, parents and teenagers all about healthy gums and teeth.
Friendly Environment
With friendly, caring, qualified staff who are all big children at heart, any child will soon feel at home. We also have a play room for any young ones attending the practice with parents and relatives.
Education, Education, Education
By educating children about the importance of good oral hygiene we hope to lay the foundations which will lead to good habits and healthy teeth in adult life. We have been awarded Denplan?s excel accreditation for our work with children, so you can rest assured your child will benefit from the best possible care and advice.
