Tips for Parents: How to Help Your Child Love Dental Visits

Early visits help them get comfortable and confident with seeing the dentist, setting them up for a lifetime of positive dental experiences. We can also provide helpful information on how to care for these first teeth. At Ashburton Family Dental, we’re proud to support this journey by offering free check-ups for kids under 4.
The length of time between your visits will be tailored to your dental requirements based on your dentists review and guidance. Regular visits allow us to spot and address issues early, helping you maintain a healthy, long-lasting smile. We believe in preventing issues rather than fixing them for the best dental health. and preservation of your natural teeth.
Turn brushing and flossing into a game or family activity. Singing songs, using colorful toothbrushes, or setting rewards can make oral care something kids look forward to.
