Dental care for children at Dublin18 Dental Care
We provide a wide range of treatments and services for children. Dr Paul Hooi has many years of experience in caring for younger patients and he is well-known for his relaxed and calming nature, which helps patients of all ages to feel comfortable and confident when they have treatment.
We know that a dental surgery can be a scary place for little people and this is why we always go the extra mile to make sure children have lots of fun when they visit us.
We recommend 6 monthly check-ups for children and adults. Check-ups are particularly important for children because their teeth are growing and developing and the shape of the mouth is constantly changing. Regular appointments allow Dr Hooi and the team to take note of these changes and identify any emerging problems, which may benefit from treatment.
Teeth cleaning for tiny teeth
Teeth cleaning is extremely important and the earlier it becomes part of a child’s daily routine, the better. Children should be encouraged to brush their teeth from a very early age, so that they get used to holding and using the brush and cleaning their teeth twice a day. Brushing helps to remove bits of food and plaque from the mouth, which lowers the risk of gum disease and tooth decay.
If you have any questions about oral hygiene for children or you would like advice about making teeth cleaning fun or healthy eating, the Dublin18 Dental Care team will be happy to help!
