Preventive Dental

At Prime Children’s Dental Care, we love creating big smiles from little teeth. Children’s dental health is our expertise while creating positive experiences is our passion.

Located in Wembley and Joondalup, our dental practices are equipped with everything we need to care for your child’s teeth. We go above and beyond for our patients and are experienced in providing dental services for children with additional needs like anxiety, Autism and ADHD, to name a few.

Children’s preventive dental services

We support our profession and recommend that all children see a dentist by their first birthday. This early examination helps:

  • Minimise dental anxiety

  • Promote healthy teeth

  • Reduce tooth decay

  • Intercept orthodontic concerns 

  • Limit complications related to eating or speech problems

Our goals are to establish good habits early and develop a trusting relationship to ensure a positive dental experience now and into the future.

The benefits of regular dental care for children

Daily care of your child’s teeth is the best way to prevent cavities and decay, however, regular routine examinations and cleanings help ensure that early concerns don’t go undetected.

We will recommend a review every six to twelve months based on your child’s needs. At this appointment, we will keep your child’s teeth and gums healthy by removing plaque, calculus and food debris. This helps prevent bacteria from continuing to grow in the mouth and potentially turning into other dental diseases, such as caries (cavities) and gingivitis (gum disease).

Our team is specially trained to monitor the growth and development of your child’s teeth and gums. By scheduling regular visits, we have the opportunity to check in with you and your child. We can review cleaning techniques, dietary tips for healthy teeth, prevention measures and also identify any areas of concern before they become problematic. Our recommendations for toothbrushes, toothpaste, diet, habit cessation and trauma prevention are individualised for your child based on their age, development and risks.
