We’ve designed our Crowborough dental clinics to be comfortable and welcoming environment, to help children develop positive associations with dental visits. Our dentists in Crowborough have extensive experience providing dental care for children of all ages, and we can also recommend preventive treatments to help strengthen their teeth against plaque.
If it’s been over Six months since your child last visited the dentist, or you think they might need a treatment, book an appointment at Crowborough Gentle Dental Practice today.
Even though milk teeth are going to fall out eventually, they’re still vitally important for allowing children to eat and speak normally, and for supporting their developing jaws. Children are also at higher risk of developing tooth decay and cavities than adults because their teeth are smaller, especially if they have a lot of sugar in their diet.
When you book a kid’s dentist appointment at Crowborough Gentle Dental Practice, the kid’s dentists will examine your child’s mouth to look for any signs of problems. They’ll then recommend any corrective or preventive treatments we think are needed.
We’ll also offer advice and guidance to kid’s and their parents about how to take the best care of their teeth every day.
Caring Environment
– We want kid’s to feel happy and relaxed during their dental visits. The children’s dentists in Crowborough are bubbly and approachable. We use the latest technologies to make dental check-ups and treatments as quick and minimally invasive as possible.
Fluoride treatment
Fluoride helps strengthen teeth against decay. At Crowborough Gentle Dental Practice, we can apply a safe level of fluoride to your child’s teeth during their dental check-up and clean appointment, which can help lower their risk of tooth decay and cavities.
Oral Hygiene & Education
– If we notice that your child isn’t brushing and flossing as well as they could, we’ll demonstrate the proper techniques and offer other oral hygiene advice. We’ll also ask you or your child about their diet, in case there are any areas for improvement.
Fissure sealants
– Children’s back teeth often have small pits and grooves where bacteria can get inside. We can fill these grooves with fissure sealants to provide a barrier against decay. Fissure sealants also release fluoride over time to help strengthen their teeth.
Orthodontic assessment
– As well as checking that their teeth and gums are healthy, we’ll also assess the position of your child’s teeth. If we spot signs of crooked teeth or a misaligned bite, we may recommend orthodontic treatment to help prevent problems in the future.
Sports mouth guard
– Children’s teeth are at risk of injury during school sports and other outdoor activities. Our dentists in Crowborough can provide a custom-fitted mouthguard to offer better protection for their developing teeth than a mouthguard bought in a store.
We recommend that your child has their first dental visit by their first birthday or within 6 months of getting their first tooth.
We then recommend visiting every 6 months so our kid’s dentists can monitor their teeth and detect any problems as early as possible.
During your consultation with our children’s dentists in Crowborough, we’ll make sure you have all the information you need about the treatments we offer and what happens during your child’s check-up.
We’re always happy to answer any questions you or your children have.
