About kids dentistry

Children's teeth and jaws are still developing, and early habits shape lifelong oral health. Our pedodontists focus on making visits calm and playful, so children build a positive association with the dentist. Care includes checkups, cavity prevention, treatment of decay and advice for parents.

Frequently asked questions

When should my child first see a dentist?

Most dentists recommend a first visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth appearing.

Do baby teeth really matter if they fall out?

Yes. Baby teeth help with chewing and speech and hold space for adult teeth. Decay in them can cause pain and infection.

How can I help my child feel calm at the dentist?

Talk about it positively, avoid scary words, and let the dentist explain things. A short, friendly first visit helps a lot.

How often should children visit the dentist?

Typically every six months, unless the dentist advises otherwise.

How much does a children's dental visit cost in Thane?

The cost depends on your case, so we give a clear quote after examination, with no hidden charges added later.
