It is never too early to teach your child good Oral hygiene, even as early as birth. Here are some tips to help you care for your babies gums and new teeth: -Help prevent plaque bacteria by gently cleaning a newborn baby’s gums with a damp cloth after feedings. Just be sure to use water only, not toothpaste. -Don’t put your baby to bed with a bottle of formula or juices that contain sugar. -Once teething begins at about 4 to 6 months, get little ones used to having their teeth brushed. Extra-soft bristles and a pea-sized dab of non-fluoride toothpaste are best. -Even babies can develop gingivitis, decay, and cavities, so it’s a good idea to see a pediatric dentist early—use a “first visit by first birthday” strategy.

AN IMPORTANT NOTICE! Earlier this year the government announced it's intention to cancel the Child Dental Benefit schedule. It has now been announced that the legislation to close the CDBS was not introduced to Parliament in 2016, and the program will continue to operate into 2017. This means if eligible, your child will still be covered for up $1,000 worth of bulk billed dentistry. If you are unsure if your child is eligible, please call us today and one of our friendly staff will help you check.
