When should I first bring my child to the dentist?

We recommend bringing your child to the dentist as early as possible, ideally when the first tooth appears.

By visiting the dentist early in life, your child will become comfortable and familiar with us and our practice, and be excited to keep their teeth clean and healthy.

We’ll help you teach your children how to look after their teeth and gums, and establish good at-home routines. When your child is old enough and comfortable to do so, they’ll receive their first teeth clean in the dental chair.

The CDBS provides individual benefits on a range of dental services including routine examinations, fillings and cleanings.
