Our free NHS children’s dental service provides a warm and inviting atmosphere that helps children relax & see the dentist as a positive experience.
We believe in setting the stage for a lifetime of great oral health right from the start, and are here to help with preventative care for the infants, children & adolescents within our local Tavistock community.
Children’s Dentistry
-
Preventative Care
We aim to instil preventive measures like regular cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to protect & prevent children's teeth from decay and cavities.
-
Education
We help both children and parents learn about proper oral hygiene, including brushing, flossing, and a healthy diet, to build good dental habits from an early age.
-
Early Intervention
Detecting and addressing dental issues early is crucial, we will work to identify potential problems such as misaligned teeth, bite issues, or cavities and provide timely intervention.
-
Nervous Patients
Visiting the dentist at a young age can be daunting, so we work hard to make it a positive comfortable experience. We aim to remove any anxiety & help encourage regular check-ups, so children grow up with dental hygiene being a healthy stress-free part of their lives.
-
Monitoring Development
We will keep track of the growth and development of a child's teeth and jaws to ensure we can intervene if necessary to give the child proper alignment and oral health in the future.
