Onyx Dental takes dentistry for children very seriously. If we can help make the visit to the dentist as comfortable as possible for your children, there is a much greater chance that they will have great teeth for the rest of their lives.
Ultimately, the health of your child’s mouth is dependant on your child’s habits, and there is nothing worse than being advised to change something, like diet, that is much easier said than done! At Onyx Dental, we take great care to understand everyone, including children, so that we can give the most appropriate advice, in each case.
Children notoriously have a short attention span, and become fidgety very quickly. To help keep their attention, they can have the verbal consultation separate to the clinical exam, and try to keep things as short as possible, while still getting the information we need.
If there is any treatment to be carried out, then we can show you on the monitor, and explain the situation to both yourself, and your child. The actual treatment, if suitable to be carried out at Onyx Dental, will usually be carried out by numbing the area to be worked on, so that the treatment is as pain free as possible.
We have specific membership plans to help children have the treatment they need, these can be discussed with an Onyx Dental team member.
Please have a look at the Information Guides section for free information about common dental conditions, and what you can do to avoid them.
