Does my child need to go to the dentist?
The UK recommendation for paediatric dentistry is that all children visit a dentist before their first birthday, or when their first tooth appears. Encouraging regular checkups will help to prevent dental problems, build lifelong healthy habits, and ensure your child’s teeth develop properly.
If your child experiences dental pain, swelling, or injury, contact the practice and bring them in for an assessment. Early care can make a big difference in comfort and long-term health. Our friendly team is here to support your child’s dental journey every step of the way.
