Questions
When should my child first visit the dentist?
Children are generally encouraged to have their first visit around the time their first tooth appears, or by their first birthday.
How often should children have check-ups?
Regular visits are recommended. Your dentist may suggest a schedule based on your child's oral health.
What happens at a child's appointment?
Usually an examination of the teeth, gums and mouth, preventive advice, and a clean where appropriate.
What if my child is nervous?
We take a gentle, supportive approach and work at your child's pace wherever possible. Happy gas may also be an option for anxious children.
Is sleep dentistry available for children?
Sleep dentistry may be appropriate for some children, depending on their needs and the treatment planned. Your dentist will discuss the options after an assessment.
Is my child eligible for the CDBS?
Eligibility is set by Medicare. Our team can help you check, and CDBS-eligible children are bulk billed at Mydental.
