At Dental Logic, we understand that a good dental experience is not just important – it’s crucial. It sets the foundation for a positive attitude towards dental treatment and home care. We know that children can feel anxious when visiting the dentist, especially for the first time. That’s why we strive to make every visit pleasant and stress-free.

We have a specially designed play corner and kid’s treatment rooms to keep the youngsters excited when they walk into our practice. We know how to interact with children and keep them engaged while comprehensively examining their teeth, gums, jaw development, and any undesired issues.

Our dentist and oral health therapist are highly trained in treating children. We have happy gas available. We know how to put kids at ease and aim to make your child feel good and positive throughout the visit.

Importance Of Regular Children's Dental Check-ups

Just like their A-B-Cs, teach your kids the importance of looking after their smile! Taking them for regular dental check-ups sets them up for a lifetime of healthy teeth. Here’s how:

When Should I Take My Kids To The Dentist?

For a bright and healthy smile, schedule your children’s first trip to the dentist between the ages of 2 and 3. This early visit lays the foundation for good oral health habits that will last a lifetime! It’s a chance for our dentist to check their growing teeth and gums, answer any questions you might have, and set your kids on the path to a sparkling smile.

How Often Should I Take My Kids To The Dentist?

We recommend children see our friendly dentists and oral health therapists every six months for regular examinations. Not only does this get your kids comfortable with the whole dental team, but it also lets us keep a close eye on their teeth as they grow. That way, we can catch troubles early and keep those smiles healthy.

Why Are Baby Teeth So Important?

Healthy baby teeth and gums, as well as correct oral function, are essential for how your child speaks, how their jaw grows, and how their grown-up teeth eventually line up.

Oral habits such as finger sucking and tongue thrusting and abnormal breathing patterns like mouth breathing and sleep apnoea can disrupt how your child’s jaw grows. This can lead to overcrowding, a misaligned bite, and headaches or migraines. So, looking after those baby teeth is important for setting your child up for a lifetime of good dental health and a bright, healthy smile.

When Do Baby Teeth Fall Out?

Kids grow fast, and that includes their teeth! But those cute little milk teeth won’t last forever. They’re like placeholders, making room for the bigger, grown-up teeth that come through later.

Most kids start losing their baby teeth around six years old, but don’t worry if it’s a bit earlier or later – every kid’s different. It’s all a gradual process, and it usually happens in a predictable order.

Check out the image to see the typical timeline for when each tooth falls out:

Remember, every child is different, so some might lose their teeth earlier or later than the timeline. If you’re ever worried, ask our dentist a question – we are here to help you maintain your child’s dental health in good condition!
