Children’s Dentistry Leicester

As a family dental practice, we offer children’s dentist appointments with our friendly team of dentists.

We very much enjoy working with parents to ensure their children get the healthiest possible start with their dental care from the moment their first tooth emerges.

Patient and caring dental professionals

Our team of professional dentists understand how much patience is required to work with children, especially during their first few initial visits to the practice. We will do our utmost to help your child get used to what will be new surroundings and feel safe and secure when they come and see us for each future appointment.

It’s perfectly normal for your child not to open their mouth during their first few dentist visits. However, once trust has been established between your child and their dentist; we can check over their mouth and jaw, looking out for any abnormal signs such as decay, tooth misalignment, jaw joint problems, and chips and cracks.

Dental decay is the most predominant threat to a child’s dental health, highlighting the importance of a low-sugar diet and regular brushing. Their dentist here at Knighton Dental Practice will advise you on how to encourage them to brush and motivate them to eat healthily, which we know can be a colossal challenge! We are here to support both parents and children so that they can overcome obstacles that might prevent healthy teeth and gums.
