What can I do to prepare my child for their dental visit?

What can I do to prepare my child for their dental visit?

We enjoy meeting children at our Mt. Waverley dental clinic and take measures to make them feel at ease when under our care. You can help by speaking positively about the dental clinic. Let your child know they’ll make fun friends among our team members. Avoid words like ‘drill’ or ‘shot.’

You can also prepare your child by educating them about their oral health. Talk to them about why it’s essential to keep their mouth clean and how a healthy smile is a thing to be proud of.

In other words, the more positive you are about dentistry and dental health, the more at ease your child will likely feel about visiting our dental clinic.

Your Child’s First Visit with a Children’s Dentist in Mt. Waverley, VIC

They’ll have a fun ride in the dental chair, and we’ll count their teeth. The goal is to acclimate them to their surroundings and show them how fun our dental team can be. Of course, we start monitoring their oral health from the beginning, but we can observe their teeth and gums and still make it fun.

Additionally, we set aside time to discuss concerns with you and answer any questions you may have.

We Can’t Wait to Meet Your Child

Our team enjoys treating patients of all ages, including children. To get started, we welcome your call.
