Children’s teeth are an important aspect of overall health that can sometimes be overlooked. Issues such as toothache, grinding, or airway problems can lead to disruptive sleep, irritability, and even affect the development of their adult teeth, resulting in permanent damage. At Dental Greetings, we prioritise your children’s oral health and work together to create a long, caring relationship from a young age. Our goal is to make dental visits a positive experience, so your child grows up unafraid of the dentist.
Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are crucial for maintaining your child’s oral health. We focus on prevention and early detection of dental issues to ensure your child’s smile remains healthy.
Early intervention can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems.
We provide solutions to address grinding and protect your child’s teeth.
Addressing airway problems can improve sleep quality and overall health.
We educate both parents and children on proper oral hygiene practices. Teaching good brushing and flossing habits from a young age sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
With the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) scheme, children are eligible for up to $1095 of dental treatment over two years. This government program helps ensure that children receive the dental care they need without financial burden.
Not sure if your child is eligible?
Give us a call, and we will handle the details for you. Our team will check your child’s eligibility and guide you through the process to maximise your benefits.
We recommend bringing your child for their first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months after their first tooth appears. Early visits help familiarise your child with the dental environment and allow for early detection of any issues.
Children should visit the dentist every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. Regular visits help maintain their oral health and prevent dental problems.
To prepare your child for a dental visit, talk positively about the dentist, read books about dental visits, and practice good oral hygiene at home. Bringing a favourite toy or comfort item can also help.
The CDBS scheme provides eligible children with up to $1000 of dental treatment over two years. It covers a range of services, including exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, and more. Contact us to check your child’s eligibility.
Encourage your child to brush their teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and to floss daily. Limit sugary snacks and drinks, and ensure they drink plenty of water. Regular dental visits are also essential for maintaining good oral hygiene.
If your child has a toothache, contact us immediately to schedule an appointment. In the meantime, rinse their mouth with warm water, use a cold compress on their cheek, and avoid giving them sugary foods or drinks.
Ensure your child’s oral health is in good hands with our comprehensive paediatric dental services. Call us at (07) 3124 7166 or book online to schedule your appointment. At Dental Greetings, we are dedicated to providing gentle and effective care for your little ones.
