How the procedure works
-
First visit — "Count the teeth"
Fun, no-treatment visit. Child rides the chair, we count teeth with a mirror. Builds trust.
-
Cleaning & polish
Flavoured paste (strawberry, bubblegum). Usually <20 min.
-
Fluoride varnish
Painted on — no taste, no pain. Strengthens enamel against cavities.
-
Sealants
Plastic coating on chewing surfaces of molars. Prevents 80% of childhood cavities.
-
Fillings
Tooth-coloured, tiny instruments, numbing gel first then a "sleepy juice" if needed.
-
Early orthodontic check
At age 7 we screen for bite issues. Early intervention saves years of braces later.

First screening at age 7 — we catch crossbites, crowding or jaw issues early. Most active orthodontic treatment starts 10–13 years old.
Before age 4: usually outgrown. After age 5–6 it affects adult teeth alignment and jaw shape. We offer habit-breaker appliances — painless and effective.
Yes. Infections in baby teeth can damage the adult tooth developing below. Baby molars don't fall out till age 11–12 — that's years of pain if untreated.
