Does Your Child Have Toothache or an Injury?

Call promptly and tell us the child’s age, what happened and when, and whether there is pain, swelling, fever or bleeding. View urgent dental guidance →

A knocked-out permanent tooth needs immediate dental advice. Never put a knocked-out baby tooth back into the socket. Difficulty breathing or swallowing, severe spreading swelling, heavy uncontrolled bleeding or serious facial injury requires immediate hospital care.

A Parent’s Guide to Children’s Dental Care

Select a topic to keep its explanation and options together. The guide supports understanding; examination determines what your child needs.

A positive start and practical prevention

The first visit can introduce the clinic, check developing teeth and help parents establish a realistic home-care routine.

Check-ups and cleaning

We assess teeth, gums, brushing and decay risk. Cleaning and review intervals are planned individually.

Fluoride and fissure sealants

Fluoride varnish or protective sealants may be advised according to age, tooth development and decay risk.

Support for parents

Get practical guidance on supervised brushing, doctor recommended toothpaste, snacks and drinks.

Care for painful or damaged teeth

Baby teeth matter for comfort, eating and the development of adult teeth. Pain should be assessed rather than ignored because the tooth will eventually fall out.

Fillings and children’s crowns

The amount and location of damage guide whether a filling or protective crown is suitable.

Treatment inside a tooth

Pulpotomy or pulpectomy may be considered when decay reaches the tissue inside a tooth. We explain the purpose in plain language.

Removal when needed

If removal is appropriate, we explain why and whether we need to check the space for developing teeth later.

Support as adult teeth come through

Children develop at different rates. Regular checks help separate changes that can be monitored from those needing attention.

Eruption and early tooth loss

We check how teeth are emerging and whether premature tooth loss has affected the space for developing teeth.

Bite and alignment

Crowding, protruding teeth and bite concerns can be reviewed as the child grows. A review does not automatically mean braces.

Habits, sleep and breathing

Discuss thumb sucking, chewing, persistent mouth breathing or snoring so we can consider the appropriate checks or referral.

Make the visit easier

Tell us what your child finds difficult. Previous experiences, sensory preferences and communication needs help us plan a calmer visit.

Explain and show

We introduce the surroundings and explain steps in language the child can understand.

Work with parents

Parent involvement, breaks and pace are considered alongside the child’s dental needs.

Prepare without pressure

Describe the visit simply. Avoid promising that treatment will or will not happen at the first appointment.

Parent information

Home Care Guidance by Age

Brushing, toothpaste, food and injury guidance changes as children grow. We keep the detailed age-by-age advice in one parent guide so it is easier to find and update. Read the Children’s Dental Care Guide →

Your Child’s First Visit

01

Tell Us

Share the concern, medical history, medicines, allergies and previous dental experiences.

02

Gentle Examination

We start by looking and building familiarity. X-rays are considered only when clinically needed.

03

Clear Explanation

Parents receive an explanation of findings, alternatives and whether care can be staged.

04

Plan and Review

You leave with home-care advice and an individual treatment or review plan.

The first appointment may focus on examination, familiarisation and planning. Treatment depends on clinical need, urgency and the child’s readiness.

Questions Before Your Child’s Visit

A useful first visit is when the first tooth appears, or by the first birthday. If your child is older and has not attended, start with a consultation now.

Not necessarily. Examination, familiarisation and planning may be the main purpose. Urgent needs, treatment complexity and the child’s readiness guide what happens.

Tell us when booking. Previous experiences, sensory sensitivities, communication needs, breaks and parent involvement can be considered when planning the appointment.

Baby teeth support eating, speech, comfort and space for developing teeth. Whether a tooth needs treatment, monitoring or removal depends on consultation.

Depending on the tooth and damage, options may include preventive care, a filling, a children’s crown, treatment inside the tooth or removal. We explain the alternatives.

No. It may establish how teeth and jaws are developing and whether monitoring, early treatment or later review is reasonable.

Bring medical information, a list of medicines and allergies, previous dental records if available and any comfort item that helps your child settle.

Arrange Your Child’s Dental Visit

Tell us what is worrying you and anything that may help your child feel more comfortable. We will help arrange an appropriate consultation.
