Gentle, Kid‑Friendly Dental Care
We deliver compassionate paediatric dentistry for infants, children and adolescents. Our focus is prevention, early intervention and creating positive experiences so children grow up with healthy teeth and confident smiles.
First visit — what to expect
The first appointment is a gentle introduction to the dental setting. We review medical history, perform a quick, non‑invasive exam, offer age‑appropriate oral hygiene advice and discuss teething, diet and fluoride. Visits are short and positive to build trust.

Preventive tips for parents
- Start cleaning gums from infancy and brush twice daily once teeth erupt.
- Use age‑appropriate fluoride toothpaste in the recommended amount.
- Limit sugary snacks and offer water between meals.
- Schedule regular dental checkups — early detection prevents bigger problems.

Frequently asked questions
- When should my child first see the dentist?
- We recommend the first visit by the age of 12 months or when the first tooth appears, whichever comes first.
- Are baby teeth important?
- Yes — primary teeth are essential for chewing, speech development and guiding permanent teeth. Treating decay early prevents pain and future problems.
- How do I manage toothache at home?
- Rinse with warm water, use a cold pack for swelling and give age‑appropriate analgesia if needed. Contact us for urgent assessment if pain or swelling persists.
