Children’s Dental Services
At Harbourtown Dental we believe that your child’s dental care is very important. Our friendly and professional dentists are committed to making your child’s visit comforting and educational.
You can start by bringing your infant child to the dentist during your regular dental visit, because this will help them become familiar with the sights, smells and sounds of the dentist, and reduce their chance of developing dental anxiety. You can take your infant child to the dentist for their first visit after their first tooth erupts. Before the baby’s teeth come through, wipe their gums with a clean, wet cloth to maintain their oral health.
The aim is to make your child’s visit as pleasant as possible, and to create a positive attitude towards visiting the dentist. Through education and motivation, the goal is to teach and encourage good oral hygiene techniques to maintain healthy gums and teeth, and to develop good oral hygiene habits that will last their lifetime.
