Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child first visit the dentist in Bankstown?
We recommend a first visit when your child’s first tooth appears, or by their first birthday. If your child is older and has not seen a dentist yet, it is never too late to start. Book an appointment with our Bankstown team, and we will take it from there.
My child is scared of the dentist. How do you help?
Our Bankstown team is experienced in caring for nervous children. We take our time, use simple language, and show your child each instrument before we use it. Your child is encouraged to ask questions and tell us when they need a break.
How often should my child visit the dentist?
Most children have a check-up every six months. Children with a higher risk of decay or active orthodontic treatment may need to be seen more often. Your dentist will recommend a schedule at your child’s first appointment.
Are baby teeth really important?
Yes. Baby teeth hold space for permanent teeth and help with speech and chewing. Decay in baby teeth can spread quickly and cause pain, so caring for them matters just as much as caring for adult teeth.
At what age should my child have an orthodontic assessment?
Many children benefit from an orthodontic check around age 7 to 8, as their adult teeth start to come through. Treatment does not always begin at this age. An early assessment helps us spot developing bite or spacing concerns and plan the right timing. You can read more on our orthodontics Bankstown page.
How can I help my child brush their teeth properly?
Children usually need help with brushing until around age 7 or 8. Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste suited to their age, and make it a routine. We share brushing and flossing tips at each visit that suit your child’s age and teeth.
Do you use local anaesthetic for children?
When treatment needs it, we use a local anaesthetic suited to your child’s age and explain the process in simple terms first. Many children’s treatments, such as check-ups, cleans and fluoride applications, do not need any anaesthetic. We will always talk with you before we begin.
Can my child have fissure sealants on baby teeth?
Fissure sealants are most often placed on permanent molars. In some cases, we may recommend them for baby teeth with deep grooves and a higher risk of decay. We will check your child’s teeth and advise what suits them.
Do I need to stay with my child during the appointment?
Parents are welcome to stay with their child throughout the appointment. Some children settle better with a parent beside them, while others relax with a parent nearby. We will follow your child’s lead and talk with you about what works best.
