Healthy Teeth

Did you know that tooth decay can be avoided with good dental care as well as tooth-friendly eating and drinking?

 

Children should begin having regular dental checks from 2 years of age.

 

Healthy baby teeth are very important because:

  • they are place holders for permanent teeth
  • they can impact on a child’s self esteem
  • they help children eat nutritious food
  • problems in baby teeth can damage the adult teeth growing underneath

 

If you think your child has tooth decay it is important to see a dentist to stop it from getting worse. Dental care for children is often free or low cost in the public dental system up to a certain age. Please contact your local council to find out more.
