As soon as your child has teeth, it is valuable to have them checked. This is also a great opportunity to discuss tooth brushing and the impact of diet on your child’s teeth. These visits lay down the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.”

Why Should You Take Your Children to a Family Dentist?
There are several key factors, such as environment, diet and hereditary factors, that can display themselves in multiple (or even all) members of the same family. You can read about these factors, and the benefits of seeing a family dentist here.
A family dentist is in a privileged position to view the overall health of your family, and this allows them to identify and monitor many potential problems with your child’s dental health. It also gives an opportunity for early diagnosis.
Is My Child Too Young for the Dentist?
The Australian Dental Association recommends your child’s first dental appointment at 12 months of age, or shortly after the eruption of their first baby teeth.
During this visit, the dentist will check the health of the child’s first teeth, and any potential alignment issues. It is also an opportunity to go over any important information for parents, such as the best toothbrushes, pastes and dental products to use to ensure your child maintains healthy teeth!
