The importance of taking your child to the dentist

From an early age, it is recommended that you take your child to see a dentist as regularly as possible. This is so that your child can become used to the dentist as someone familiar and become attuned to the environment, as well as ensuring that your child has good oral health from a young age.

The famous Harley Street in London is home to many clinics and specialists who provide some of the best treatment in health care including dentistry. So if you are looking for an experienced dentist for your child, you may want to consider visiting us, as we offer paediatric dentistry Harley Street.

What we offer children as patients at our clinic

At our clinic we also understand the importance of paediatric dentistry Harley Street, which is why we encourage parents to bring their children to our practice in order for us to carry out regular dental check-ups. Frequent visits to our practice in the early years allows us to closely monitor your child’s oral health and identify and treat any dental conditions, which if left untreated, can cause further problems.

Laser dentistry and its uses

Used to treat many different dental conditions, laser dentistry is offered by our practice for both children and adult patients. Made to be a more enjoyable form of dental treatment for our younger patients, laser dentistry uses the power of water and laser energy in order to provide effective dental treatment solutions for issues such as gum disease and pulp therapy.

The benefits of laser dentistry

One of the reasons why laser dentistry is a more enjoyable experience for children when we are carrying out paediatric dentistry Harley Street is that it is a quicker form of dental treatment which also uses little to no anaesthesia, meaning that if your child has any fear or anxiety when visiting the dentist, this will help to allay it. There is also a lower probability of side effects when having laser dental treatment and there is a reduced risk of experiencing issues such as inflammation, infection or swelling following treatment

If your child is particularly anxious when visiting a dentist, you will be pleased to know that at Harley Street Dental Clinic our team of specialists are trained to manage anxious children by using options such as sedation or general anaesthesia in order to calm your child down and make their experience with us as stress free as possible.
