The Dental Spa London
Expert Dentistry for Children from First Tooth to Teens
Maintaining good oral health from a young age is crucial, as it sets the foundation for lifelong dental well-being. Choosing the right dentist is essential for ensuring your child receives top-notch treatment and care. At Dental Spa London, our team of dedicated dentists, hygienists, and professionals are committed to providing comfort and well-being for patients of all ages, both in and out of the dental chair.
Our children’s dental services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each child, ensuring their utmost comfort during visits.
We also support your family by keeping you informed about the best brushing techniques and providing essential dietary advice to foster healthy teeth and happy smiles for your children.
Children typically begin to get their milk teeth at around six months old. We recommend scheduling their first dental examination at the age of two, and then regularly every three to twelve months thereafter. Since plaque can begin to form as soon as teeth emerge, it’s vital to establish a good oral health routine early, starting with that very first tooth.
Healthy Smiles Start Early: Preventive Dental Care for Children
We’re committed to giving your child a healthy start in life with top-tier preventive dental care in the Earlsfield area! With our preventive services, concerns about tooth decay and cavities will be a thing of the past. We employ the latest dental technology to protect and maintain your child’s oral health effectively.
Effective strategies to avoid cavities:
- Always choose healthy snacks for your child
- Only give treats alongside meals Watch what your child consumes
- Restrict your child’s frequency of mealtimes and snacks
- Encourage your child to brush, floss, and rinse their teeth
- Make sure you avoid giving your child sticky and sugary foods
- Remind your child to brush their teeth (when they appear) twice a day for at least two minutes
Cavities are a frequent dental issue among children, often caused by excessive sugar consumption and insufficient brushing. Regular brushing and reducing sugar intake can significantly decrease the incidence of cavities. The longer food remains on a child’s teeth and the more they chew, the higher the risk of developing cavities. Consuming a diet high in carbohydrates and sugars can lead to thicker saliva, which in turn boosts the activity of acid-producing bacteria that contribute to cavity formation.
4 Key Tips for Safe and Fun Toothbrushing for Kids
1. Guide Their Hand: Assist your child by guiding their hand during brushing to help them learn the proper technique.
2. Use a Mirror: Let your child use a mirror while brushing to see exactly what the toothbrush is doing.
3. Make It Fun: Turn brushing into a fun activity by setting an egg timer for two minutes to ensure they brush for the right amount of time.
4. Teach Safety: Caution your child against moving around with the toothbrush in their mouth to prevent injuries.
