Caring children’s dentist in Reigate

We have set up our Reigate dentist practice to be a premium experience just like our Chelsea clinic, and that means for children, too. We know children and young adults may feel worried about coming to the dentist so we do everything we can to make it a positive, productive time. Whether we are easing toothache, replacing a decayed tooth so it looks bright and new, or straightening teeth to improve function or boost confidence with a winning smile, we put our young patients’ comfort and happiness first. We always take into account their age, personality and any fears they may have.

Instilling the right dental health routine from an early age is so important to strong, healthy teeth as an adult. We offer early check-ups to monitor baby teeth and emerging permanent teeth, thereby building confidence and reassuring children that a trip to the dentist is a good thing.

Our friendly team are careful to talk to children before and during their treatment, explaining what we are doing and why. We always use words they can understand and we make sure they know what to expect.

We teach them about good and bad habits, laying the foundation for routines that can last a lifetime. Bad habits can have damaging long-term effects through dental decay and gum disease, so we carefully explain the value of excellent dental health and work hard to prevent disease and maintain healthy teeth for a lifetime.

Children and young adults who come to our dental clinic in Reigate are set on the path to healthy growth and tooth alignment, which we monitor at every visit.

When it comes to removing tooth decay and filling cavities, our priority is to make treatment as comfortable as possible. We have some clever techniques when giving local anaesthetic so that they don’t even notice it. Instead they can enjoy a movie or their favourite show and not have to worry about what they are having done. We explain our treatments to them every step of the way and we stage our treatments so that they find it all comfortable and easy.

We also offer children’s hygiene treatments and fissure sealants, brushed onto the surface of the teeth to fill small gaps so food and bacteria cannot become trapped and cause decay. Prevention is our priority.

Our orthodontic specialist is on site for treatment to straighten or realign teeth, so our regular young patients can visit the Reigate dental clinic they already know – something they find reassuring. We are just as happy to welcome new patients, so please make a booking.

Early orthodontic treatment can significantly reduce the length of time braces are needed in later life. Discreet and almost invisible braces are available for young patients who may be worried about their appearance.
