24.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW.... Its recommended to assist your child brush their teeth up until the age of 9 years old. This is due to to children not yet having the dexterity to brush adequately and reach all surfaces of the teeth. Its also a great way to use this time to check their teeth daily, in between 6 monthly checkups. We know for our strong independent little patients, this might be difficult. Compromising, by allowing them to brush in the morning independently. Use the nighttime brush (the most important) as your time to be thorough to brush and floss!

18.01.2022 WHAT IS A PAEDIATRIC DENTIST? A paediatric dentist is a specialist in the field of childrens dentistry. Rather than being a dentist with an interest in paediatric dentistry, a trained paediatric dentist has dedicated their career solely to the care of children and their teeth. Paediatric dentists have obtained a masters degree involving three years of specialist postgraduate training and research. Their focus is primarily on child behaviour, psychology, growth and develo...pment, special needs dentistry and of course teeth! This is why theyre the experts in the field and are regarded as the authority in childrens dentistry. Dr Michael and our other specialists aim to provide the highest standard of care for all children as well as those who are scared, have extensive dental treatment requirements, and those who have special behavioural or health needs and medical conditions.
