At Dental On Cue, we understand the importance of fostering healthy dental habits from a young age. Our children’s dentistry services are designed to provide the highest quality care in a friendly, comfortable environment, ensuring your child’s smile remains bright and healthy.
Why Children's Dentistry is Important
Getting a good start with dental health is essential for children, as it lays the groundwork for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. Early visits to the dentist help prevent tooth decay and other dental issues, promote proper oral hygiene habits, and can even reduce anxiety about dental visits in the future.
Child Dental Benefits Schedule
The Commonwealth Government has created the Child Dental Benefits Schedule to offer eligible families up to $1,132 in financial assistance for essential dental services for children.
Children's Treatment Options
We offer a comprehensive range of children’s treatments to meet the unique needs of children:
- Dental Check-Ups: Regular check-ups and cleans are essential for maintaining your child’s oral health. Our team provides thorough examinations, professional cleans and fluoride treatments to keep your child’s teeth strong and healthy.
- Education and Guidance: We believe in empowering children and parents with the knowledge they need to maintain excellent oral health. Our dental team provides education on diet, oral hygiene, and the importance of regular dental visits.
- Specialised Treatments: If your child requires more specific dental care, we offer fillings, extractions, and dental sealants.
- Orthodontic Evaluations: We can identify potential issues with your child’s bite or alignment and can provide referrals for orthodontic treatment if needed, ensuring your child’s teeth develop correctly.
Preparing for Your Child's First Visit
We recommend your child has their first dental appointment either by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. To prepare your child for their first visit, we suggest:
- Positive Reinforcement: Encourage your child to see the dentist as a positive experience.
- Role Modelling: Let your child see you practising good oral hygiene habits.
- Comfort Items: Let your child bring their favourite toy or comfort item to help them feel at ease.
