Children’s teeth play an essential role in who they are as individuals. It is essential that they are looked after gently and carefully.

A child’s baby or primary teeth are of great importance. Baby teeth can help pave the way for secondary teeth, enhance speaking ability and chewing function. It is essential to begin caring for your child’s teeth from an early age.

Their First Visit to Dr. Whittle
It is very important not to wait until your child experiences tooth ache to visit us. By visiting a Dentist from an early age, it can help to eliminate the fear of the Dentist.

We encourage children to attend from an early age with their parents so that they may become familiar with the dental environment. This will help them to become familiar with the dental environment. Your child gets a ride in the dental chair; they count their teeth and have some fun with the dental camera. They will receive a reward for their co-operation and they will be encouraged to brush and speak about the importance of their teeth. When the 'big day' comes to visit Dr. Whittle make it an exciting event for your child. Take along their favourite toy to play with while they are waiting.

Establishing A Dental Hygiene Routine
By following the right dental routine, you can help prevent teeth and gum problems and establish a healthy habit for life. Young children learn best by imitation. Brushing together can help make brushing a fun part of your child's daily routine. Parents will need to help until they feel confident that their child can reach all the tricky spots and brush with confidence. This can be up to 8 years of age before the child’s manual dexterity allows satisfactory cleaning.
