First Visit to the Dentist
Making the first visit to the dentist a positive experience for your child is crucial to setting good oral health habits.
Familiarising your child with the dentist from a young age by taking them with you to your own dental appointments can help to prevent any anxiety relating to the dental environment and the overall experience. A bad experience at the dentist at a young age can result in a fear of dental care in later years.

Dental Emergencies
Dental emergencies can be traumatic for everyone. The number one thing to remember is not to panic and that we are here to assist you.
As you will be well aware, for active children of any age there are numerous situations in which a tooth can be knocked out or chipped, whether in the classroom, at home or (most commonly of all) when playing sport.
When a child presents with a missing or chipped tooth, a normal reaction is to panic. Fortunately though, it can be possible to save the tooth if quick action is taken.
