You may hear some people saying that their child didn’t see a dentist until they had a full set of teeth, around the age of three. Please don’t leave it this long! Bacteria can start forming in babies’ mouths from a super young age.

Oral piercings are nothing new. For years, teens and adults alike have used lips, tongue and cheek piercings as a form of self-expression. At smilogy, we love what makes you “you”. We know that piercings may be part of your teen’s personality, but as dental professionals, we owe you the facts.

Children should start seeing the dentist before their first birthday. This will get them used to coming in and normalise the experience, which should take away any fear. If they haven’t had the opportunity, it’s not too late - simply get them in as soon as possible.

Fashion goes in and out of style but a great smile lasts a lifetime. Our clear aligners for teens allow your parents to invest in your future, ensuring you develop the confidence you deserve. They’re also an affordable choice for parents - they’re not going to break the bank.

Kids can be afraid of lots of different things - one of these is going to the dentist. The Australian Dental Journal suggests that over 10% of children don’t like going, but many of these fears can be easily addressed.
