child dental care

Comprehensive care for developing smile.

Children’s oral health needs change as they grow. At Castle Dental, we take a preventative approach from the start, carefully monitoring your child’s development and offering tailored advice to keep their smile on track.

During their visits, we’ll check for:

  • Signs of decay or dental infection.
  • Tooth wear caused by diet or habits.
  • Eruption patterns and orthodontic needs.
  • Speech development issues related to teeth.
  • Breathing challenges that may be linked to oral anatomy.
  • Dietary habits that may affect oral health.

If needed, we can refer your child for orthodontic treatment or provide early interventions to support long-term oral wellness.

Castle Dental

Empowering children with positive dental experiences.

We understand that dental appointments can be daunting, especially for little ones. It’s perfectly normal for children to be hesitant or resist their first few visits.

That’s why our dentists take the time to build trust. We never rush. Instead, we use patience, gentle encouragement and fun explanations to create a positive environment.

Frequently asked questions

What to expect — Your questions answered

When should my child have their first dental visit?

We recommend bringing your child in by the time their first tooth appears, or at six months of age – whichever comes first. We’re also happy to offer advice to new parents at any stage.

How can I help my child enjoy visiting the dentist?

Here are a few proven tips:

  • Talk positively about your own dental visits.
  • Let them bring a favourite toy for comfort.
  • Read books or watch shows where characters go to the dentist (e.g. Peppa Pig, Topsy and Tim).

Do children often need dental treatment?

Tooth decay is the most common dental issue in children and a leading cause of hospital admissions in 5 to 9-year-olds. We offer fissure sealants to help protect vulnerable back teeth and support you with advice on managing sugar intake and introducing tooth-friendly foods at home.
