Baby teeth can start appearing from around 6 months and teething can mean sore gums, drooling and lots of chewing!🦷

A few simple tips:
• Offer a cool teething ring or clean, chilled washcloth
• Gently massage sore gums with a clean finger
• Start brushing as soon as the first tooth appears
• Avoid sugary drinks in bottles, especially at bedtime

We recommend your baby has their first dental check-up by their 1st birthday. 👶✨

Early visits help your little one get comfortable at the dentist and give parents a chance to ask questions about teething, brushing and healthy tooth development.

🦷 Does your child breathe through their mouth while sleeping?

Snoring, restless sleep, waking during the night, sleeping with the mouth open, or still seeming tired in the morning can sometimes be signs that a child’s breathing during sleep is worth looking into.

During the day, poor-quality sleep may also show up as tiredness, difficulty concentrating, irritability, hyperactivity or changes in behaviour.

At Oralux Dental, Dr Wendy Wang has a special interest in children’s airway and dental development. During an airway consultation, we assess your child’s breathing patterns, jaw and palate development, dental growth and other factors that may be contributing to their symptoms.

Early assessment can help parents better understand what may be happening and whether further investigation or referral to an ENT or other specialist is appropriate.

If you’ve noticed your child:
• Sleeps with their mouth open
• Snores or breathes noisily at night
• Grinds their teeth
• Has restless sleep
• Wakes tired despite getting enough sleep
• Struggles with concentration or daytime tiredness

The end of the year will be here before we know it! 🦷✨

If you have unused dental benefits, now is the time to start planning your appointments. Most health fund limits reset on 31 December, and any unused benefits may be lost.

September onwards is traditionally one of our busiest times of the year, so we recommend booking any pending check-ups, cleans or dental treatment early to avoid missing out on your preferred appointment time.

😴 Mouth Breathing & Your Teeth

Did you know that mouth breathing while sleeping may increase the risk of tooth decay? 🦷

Breathing through the mouth can cause dry mouth, reducing saliva — your teeth’s natural protection against acids and bacteria.

💧 Less saliva = higher risk of decay
😴 Snoring & mouth breathing can be signs of airway issues
🦷 Protecting your airway can also support a healthier smile

If your child sleeps with their mouth open, snores, or often wakes with a dry mouth, it may be worth having their breathing and airway assessed.
