Children’s Dentistry

Children's Dentistry Chisholm

We are a family oriented dental practice, welcoming all ages but particularly children. Our friendly dental team know that beginning regular dental treatment from a very young age is the best way to get a young child accustomed to visiting a dentist. At this age we focus largely on preventative dental care, aiming to keep your child’s teeth healthy and strong right into adulthood. We can work with you to help teach your kid good dental habits that will hopefully last for life. We offer a range of affordable treatments for children including:

• Check-ups
• Fluoride treatments
• Fissure sealants

Our dental practice is warm, welcoming and friendly and we all go out of our way to ensure a nervous child will feel relaxed and comfortable when visiting Vogue Family Dental. If your child is at all anxious about visiting a dentist, then please let us know when you book their first appointment so we can make sure we do everything possible to help them and to ensure their first visit is a positive experience.

For tips on how to keep your child's teeth healthy, please call us on (02) 6291 5533. We are located at 2/26 Benham St, Chisholm ACT 2905.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. When should my child have their first dental visit?

We recommend bringing your child in for their first dental visit around their first birthday or when their first tooth appears — whichever comes first. Early visits help build comfort with the dental environment and allow us to monitor oral development from the beginning.
2. How often should children see the dentist?

Children should generally have a check-up every six months. Regular visits allow us to track growth, identify any early issues, and reinforce positive oral hygiene habits. Your dentist will recommend a personalised schedule based on your child’s needs.
3. What can I do at home to care for my child’s teeth?

Good oral hygiene begins with brushing twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste (once your child is old enough). Encouraging healthy food choices and limiting sugary snacks and drinks also helps reduce the risk of decay.
4. Are preventive treatments available for children?

Yes. Preventive care may include fluoride treatments to strengthen tooth enamel and fissure sealants to protect the deep grooves in back teeth. These treatments are quick, painless, and highly effective in reducing the risk of cavities.
