Children’s Dentistry

Our dentists carry out the same procedures on children that are carried out on adults such as scaling and cleaning, fillings, extractions etc. but with an in-depth understanding of child development and behaviour management. We often find that for many patients, their experience of going to the dentist as a child was traumatic which has resulted in them accessing dental care for relief of pain only. Therefore, we focus on ensuring a positive dental experience for the child and their family which encourages good dental habits and regular dental visits in the future.

Our clinicians are comfortable and skilled in talking to children and are gentle and patient in their delivery of dental care. This alleviates any anxiety or fear that the child may have of seeing the dentist. We are also able to refer children to a specialist paediatric dentist if they require sedation such as happy gas (nitrous oxide) or general anaesthetic
