Kids Dentistry in Grafton, Coffs Harbour, and Macksville

Did you know that around 1 in 4 Aussie kids aged 5–10 have untreated tooth decay in their primary (baby) teeth?[1] Regular dental care can help lower your child’s risk, and help prevent toothaches, cavities and other problems.

Children’s dental care should begin as soon as your child grows their first teeth. Knowing how to care for kids’ teeth and gums at home can lower their risk of common dental problems. Regular trips to the dentist are also important for monitoring the healthy development of their teeth.

Our family friendly dentists at Fresh Dental Care have experience caring for the oral health of children, toddlers and infants. We’ve designed our dental clinics in Grafton, Coffs Harbour, and Macksville to be comfortable and welcoming places for all ages.

Our friendly approach can help kids to feel calm while we examine their teeth, provide minimally invasive treatments for tooth decay or help protect their teeth against plaque. We want to help kids develop positive associations with dental care that could last all through their lives.

If your child is due for a check-up or you need some advice about kids’ dental care, get in touch with our team today. Call your local clinic or book an appointment online.
