As a family-friendly dentist, all the team at the Charlbury Dental Practice know that effective dental care for children can bring life-long benefits.

By establishing regular dental check-ups and daily brushing routines, we can help optimise your child’s oral health and build confidence about seeing the dentist. In addition:

  • Good oral health routines can reduce the occurrence of cavities and gum disease.
  • Positive and reassuring childhood experiences at the dentist reduce the likelihood of putting off dental appointments or delaying dental treatments in later life.
  • Frequent checkups allow the dentist to catch any tooth development or dental issues early and plan treatment.

At what age should I start bringing my child to the dentist?

We are always happy to welcome new patients of all ages!  Generally, we recommend making an appointment with the dentist for a check-up soon as your child’s first tooth starts coming through, within the first 12 months.  Your dentist will advise you about choosing the right kind of toothbrush and toothpaste and show you how to brush your child’s teeth effectively.

How often should children see the dentist?

For children, we recommend making regular appointments with the dentist every 6 months or so. A routine check-up is a convenient opportunity for us to assess the development of your child’s teeth and spot any potential issues early on.  Importantly, coming to the practice with your children allows them to become familiar with the environment and build trust with our team of oral health professionals.

Knowing the treatment rooms, sitting in the chair and having their teeth and mouth and teeth examined by the dentist can minimise anxiety and increase confidence.  Creating positive experiences at the dentist helps optimise dental care for children in their first years and all through childhood, adolescence and adulthood.
