Why children’s check-ups matter

Tooth decay is the most common reason children aged five to nine are admitted to hospital in England. More than a fifth of five-year-olds already have decay, usually in three or four teeth.

The good news is that most of it can be prevented. Regular check-ups let us:

• Spot early signs of decay before it needs a filling
• Apply fluoride varnish to help protect teeth
• Show children (and parents) the best way to brush
• Help children feel relaxed and familiar at the dentist

We see children of all ages, and our children’s membership plans include two check-ups a year. See our membership page and fees page for current prices.

To book your child in, call 01270 876026.
