Children’s oral health remains a major concern in modern society. The figures speak for themselves:
- Nearly 25% of 5-year-olds have tooth decay – 1 in 4 children start school with tooth decay
- Each 5-year-old has tooth decay in an average of 3 to 4 teeth
- In the most deprived areas of England, 30% of 5-year-olds have tooth decay
- Tooth decay is the most common cause for hospital admissions for children aged 5 to 9-years-old, and the third most common reason for 10 to 14-year-olds
- These figures are showing no improvement
As a team we are passionate about helping to educate and look after the younger generation of ‘little smile’ we already visit a number of local schools and nurseries but the worries can often be visiting the practice itself.
We would like to offer you the change to introduce the dentist to your child in a totally unthreatening way. Come and have fun with us, we will teach you all about mouths and teeth and how to introduce good habits and maintain a healthy mouth.
Come and see what we do behind the scenes and how fun it can be.
Drinks and healthy snacks will be available.
