As Hill Bayford & Associates is a family friendly practice we encourage parents to bring their children in for a visit to meet our dentists when they are between two to three years old. However we welcome children even younger as bringing them along when you have a check-up assists them to adjust to the dental practice environment. Most children have their full set of baby teeth by three years of age – this is when we will carry out their first dental examination. The aim is to make your child as comfortable as possible during visits by making them informative and fun.

Prevention is once again the key to ensuring your child’s oral health, however should a filling be necessary then we have plenty of experience in making this “part of the fun”. Happy gas is also available, and white fillings are used on children.

We look forward to getting to know your child.
