Children's Dentistry

Taking your child to the dentist is essential for maintaining their dental health and instilling good oral hygiene habits. From your child’s perspective, though, it might be a frightening experience. This is due to the fact that they are in a strange environment with unfamiliar individuals and machines and equipment that appear to be frightening. There are a few things you should do ahead of time to prepare your child for their visit to our dental office.

We encourage good dental habits in kids from a young age

Our dental practitioners are dedicated to providing superior children’s dentistry treatments, ensuring that your child’s teeth are happy and healthy. Our exams involve a relaxed and fun check-up of their teeth.  And some advice about how to reduce any risk factors for decay.  As well as motivation with preventative care.

We Understand Children!

Children's Dentistry Services

Dental Cleaning

Keeping your child motivated to keep their teeth clean, is an essential part of their development. So we educate in a fun way, give them tips, give them stickers, and get them to do things that you as parents only dreamed they would do.  Our cleaning services are gentle, and always make the child the center of the way it happens

Tooth Extraction

Tooth extractions are done for a variety of reasons, the most common of which is to remove teeth that are no longer able to be recovered due to decay, oral trauma, or periodontal disease or they are blocking the way for adult teeth poking through.  

Dental Sealents

Fissure sealants (or mini fillings) are applied to the pitted and grooved surfaces of teeth to protect them from bacteria and acidic substances building up, and causing decay. These minimally invasive treatment helps reduce cavities, and often can be done without the need for needles.

Dental Fillings

Tooth restorations or fillings that are used to fix minor to moderate tooth damage. If your child’s tooth or teeth have been affected by tooth decay or slight chipping or fracture, fillings are usually going to help. 

We help Children Develop Good Oral Hygiene

Our first priority is always education. We want to make sure that your child understands why everyday oral hygiene is so vital.

Our highly qualified team will give you advice on how to care for your child’s teeth at home!  All with a smile!

If your family qualifies for the Medicare CDBS program, then we also do bulk bill for this program. Giving you $1013 of dental cover over a 2 year period, this program is a great incentive for you to get your kids to see a private dentist, rather than the school dental van.  We have the time and skills to provide really extensive information, and calm, unrushed treatment.   To check if you are eligible for the Medicare CDBS program dental for kids – check with Centrelink or Medicare.
