Nothing is a special as your child’s happy and healthy smile!

Encouraging a good oral hygine regime is an investment to keeping your smile and teeth for life, teaching your child from a young age proper oral care helps to protect their teeth and gums. To greatly reduce the risk of tooth decay and maintain that healthy, happy smile just follow these simple steps:

• Brush twice daily with a fluoridated toothpaste.
• Eat a well balanced diet, limiting sugary or high acidic foods(eg: cookies and lollies)!
• Choose water as a drink instead of fruit juices, sport drinks and fizzy drinks.
• Avoid frequent snacking.
• Always have regular checkups with the Dentist!

Thanks to the initiative of the Australian Government, The Department of Health has introduced the Child Dental Beneifits Schedule and along with John Street Dental, your local community Redcliffe Dentist, attending regular dental checkups for your child has become more accessible as preventitive, and other scheduled dental services are covered by Medicare Australia for eligible children.
