Children
This Devizes dental practice welcomes the children of our adult patients. They are treated comprehensively and yet the costs are much lower on our Children’s Tariff.
We encourage both child and parent in prevention rather than simply cure. The importance of preserving the deciduous or primary (baby or milk) set of teeth is stressed. This is not only for comfort and function but because they help to guide through the later secondary (adult) teeth into position.
Our Hygienist is particularly interested and keen to have children of a family together in a visit to show them simple mouth care and chat to the parents about dietary and other matters.
We listen to the parents’ opinions and viewpoints, and try to embrace these if possible in the children’s treatment plans.
