Here are a few pieces of advice to make sure your child enjoys going to the dentist/mouth hygienist:
- If your child asks questions at home about the dental visit, it is a good idea to ask those questions together.
- Don't promise presents. A child may then think something bad is going to happen.
- We are used to treating small children in a calm manner. We hope that you as a parent trust us in this.
Kids
Did you know that most treatments for children up to 18 years are covered by the basic insurance?
Our little patients are welcome at our IJburg dental office as young as 2.5 years old. In your childhood you lay the foundation for good oral health. On average, two dental checkups a year are enough.
Every child gets the chance to keep flawless teeth through preventive treatments. With fluoride gel, we ensure that tooth enamel becomes stronger.
In some cases, the molars have deep grooves and pits in the chewing surfaces. Sometimes it is difficult to keep those grooves and pits clean properly. To minimise the risk of cavities on the chewing surfaces, we may recommend sealing those grooves and pits. This way, bacteria will not have a chance to hide from the toothbrush.
