DENTAL HEALTH WEEK 2025 😁
It's really important to look after your child's teeth from the time they first come into their mouth.
Baby teeth are important for speaking and chewing, and hold space in the jaws for the adult teeth.
Tooth decay and trauma can cause pain, infection, difficulties with eating and speech and lead to crowding of the adult teeth. Extensive tooth decay or dental infections in young children may require hospitalisation and treatment under general anaesthetic.
Getting your children used to coming to the dentist for regular checkups from a young age is very important as they learn that there is nothing to be scared of, and it sets them up for good oral health as they grow and develop, and their permanent teeth erupt.
They should come at least once a year.
