We firmly believe that prevention is better than cure, so the early years are the most important in establishing good dental health. Attention will also be given to your child’s appearance and referral to a specialist orthodontist can be made after discussion. Orthodontics is about more than just correcting irregularities of teeth, it’s about creating great smiles. A child who can chew easily, speak clearly and smile confidently is a happier child.
Our team place great emphasis on making visits to the dentist relaxed, fun and friendly by giving them a ‘ride’ in the dental chair and counting their teeth. We also use fun motivators like the Nurdle Passports, stickers, certificates and colouring sheets.
To help our younger patients with additional needs, we have produced our own Social Stories, to help make dental visits less daunting. If your child has any specific needs or requirements, or you would like a copy of our Social Stories, please ask to speak to Marie, our Practice Manager, prior to your appointment.
Children’s Fees
Patients are free to choose between paying fees for treatment or joining our Children’s Denplan scheme. We have set both our private fees and Denplan fees for patients under 18 years old at specially reduced rates.
