Continuing our educational philosophy, the team at Baldivis Family Dental Care believe in a strong early interventionist approach to children’s dentistry. We focus on helping them to develop a healthy, life-long oral care routine.

With an understanding as to how much first experiences can affect ones approach to dentistry, our caring team are dedicated to ensuring that your children’s first experience and introduction into dentistry is a positive one. They even walk away with a special gift from our team!

At Baldivis Family Dental Care we recommend beginning to introduce your children to the dentist between the ages of 1-2 for their first check-up appointments. This way, they are not yet having any work or invasive treatment done but are gaining a positive first experience and outlook towards their dentist, whilst keeping an eye on the development of their teeth to help prevent any potential problems.

Below we have outlined a little about what your child can expect during their first experience including dressing up as a dentist, meeting Rex the dragon and playing with the dental chair.
