Pediatric Dentistry — frequently asked questions
When should my child first visit the dentist?
When the first tooth appears or by the child's first birthday — whichever comes first. Early visits establish healthy habits and catch issues early.
Are dental X-rays safe for children?
Yes. We use digital X-rays with very low radiation, and only take them when clinically necessary.
How do you handle a frightened child?
We use the 'tell-show-do' technique and work at the child's pace. Our team is trained in child behaviour management.
Do milk teeth need treatment?
Yes. Infected milk teeth can affect permanent teeth growing beneath them and cause significant pain. Treating them protects your child's long-term dental health.
How often should children visit the dentist?
Every 6 months for a routine check-up and cleaning.
