Preventative Care
Regular dental check-ups and oral hygiene visits are an essential part of setting your child up for a lifetime of good oral health. During a routine check-up, we’ll examine your child’s teeth and gums for signs of decay and recommend any required treatment. Our preventative care also includes oral health education, so your child will have the tools and the knowledge to take good care of their teeth at home.
Fissure Seals
Fissure seals are a protective coating that covers the deep grooves (fissures) on children’s back teeth. These grooves are often where tooth decay starts, and research has found that fissure sealants prevent up to 90% of cavities. The Australasian Academy of Paediatric Dentistry recommends that all children should have fissure sealants applied to teeth which are “at risk”. Talk to our team about the right solution for your child.
