What Makes Our Children’s Dental Care Different?

What you need to know about your childs oral health

Looking after your child’s teeth doesn’t have to be hard. In fact, the small things you do at home make a big difference. Here are five simple things every parent should know about keeping little smiles healthy and strong.

Baby teeth do matter - a lot.

Even though baby teeth fall out, they play an important role. They help your child chew, speak clearly, and guide adult teeth into place. Keeping them healthy helps protect their whole mouth.

What Our Parents Say

about their Toowoomba Dental experience

Lovely, friendly, and supportive staff who make our child feel comfortable and at ease during his visits. They always explain to him what they are doing and how it might feel or sound. They have a tv on the ceiling so that the clients have something to distract from whats happening and cool sunglasses for the kids to wear. They also remember fun facts about our child and ask relevant questions of him 🥰 The reception staff are friendly and helpful too! A great experience for children and parents.
