Frequently asked questions

Maintaining good oral health at home is crucial for overall dental well-being. Brush your teeth twice daily using fluoride toothpaste, floss regularly to clean between teeth and gums, and adopt a balanced diet low in sugary snacks and beverages. Additionally, stay hydrated and avoid tobacco use. These simple habits contribute significantly to preserving your oral health between visits to Devine Dental.

You should register your baby with a dentist before they reach six months of age, around the time their first baby teeth begin to erupt. Like adult patients, babies and children need a check-up every six months unless instructed otherwise by their dentist.

Visiting the dentist from a young age encourages robust oral health habits in children, preventing them from developing dental anxiety later in life and encouraging them to get regular check-ups into their adult life. The result? Healthy teeth and gums for the foreseeable future.

During your child’s appointment, we’ll carry out an extensive examination of their jaw, gums and bite. We will check for misalignments to see if your child needs orthodontic treatment and also for plaque, tartar and stains. If need be, we will give your child’s teeth a very gentle clean and apply preventative treatments, like fluoride varnishes, that ward off tooth decay and help keep their teeth and gums healthy for life. Lastly, we will educate you and your child on the correct way to brush little teeth and give you oral health tips like brushing and which foods and drinks to avoid.
