How a visit goes
How a visit actually goes
Four gentle beats, and the mark they draw between them.
Detection
We start by looking, gently. A count of the teeth, a look at how they meet, and a chat about what you have noticed at home. Nothing is sharp and nothing is sudden. Your child sits with you, and we explain each thing before it happens.
Treatment
If something needs doing, we tell your child exactly what it will feel like, in words they can hold on to. They get to say when we start. Most visits need nothing more than a clean, and when more is needed it is over quickly.
Care
Then the part that happens at home. We send you off with a plan that fits your actual evenings, with the brush that suits their grip, the paste that suits their age, and one thing to focus on rather than ten.
Smile!
And they leave pleased with themselves. That is the bit that matters most, because a child who is not frightened of the dentist grows into an adult who is not either. That is the whole job, really.
