Top 10 Family Dentistry FAQs – Cheltenham
Quick answers to the most common questions about family dentistry in Cheltenham – children’s visits, preventative care, and simple ways to keep everyone’s teeth and gums healthy.
1. What is family dentistry?
Family dentistry covers dental care for both children and adults, making it easier to manage appointments in one place. The focus is on prevention, routine check-ups, and treating problems early where possible.
2. When should my child first visit the dentist?
Many families start early to help children feel comfortable in the dental setting. A relaxed first visit supports confidence and helps establish good habits as teeth develop.
3. How often should children have dental check-ups?
There’s no single rule for every child. Your clinician will recommend an interval based on factors such as diet, brushing routine, and whether there’s been previous decay or sensitivity.
4. What can I do to help prevent cavities in my child’s teeth?
Brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and reducing sugary snacks and drinks can make a big difference. Your clinician can also advise on technique, brushing supervision, and routines that suit your child’s age.
5. What happens if my child is nervous about the dentist?
That’s very common, and we can take things step by step. We’ll explain what’s happening in a calm, child-friendly way and help your child feel comfortable before progressing.
6. Can parents stay with their child during the appointment?
Usually, yes. For many children it’s reassuring, especially at early visits. Your clinician can also suggest approaches that help children build confidence over time.
7. What if my child has a toothache or a broken tooth?
Contact us as soon as possible so we can advise what to do next. Early assessment helps identify the cause and decide whether it needs monitoring or treatment.
8. Do baby teeth matter if they’re going to fall out?
Yes. Baby teeth are important for eating, speech, and guiding adult teeth into position. Keeping them healthy also reduces the risk of pain and infection.
9. What treatments are available for children?
Treatments depend on your child’s needs and stage of development. Many visits focus on prevention and monitoring, and if treatment is needed, your clinician will explain the options clearly and gently.
10. How can I look after the whole family’s oral health at home?
Consistency is key – brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, clean between teeth, and keep sugary snacks and drinks to mealtimes where possible. Regular check-ups help tailor advice for each family member.

Family Friendly Dentistry in Cheltenham FAQ's
The most important thing that we offer with our family friendly dentistry in Cheltenham is a passion for oral health. We want to instill a lifelong interest in oral health for all the family, so we will always work hard to maintain healthy and happy smiles on all your faces for a lifetime.
As we are a private practice, there is no rush between appointments, so your children can take time to settle before anything begins. Our dentists will explain what is happening as it happens and make sure that your children know they have nothing to worry about. After the first appointment, the whole family will be looking forward to coming back!
Regular visits every six months creates good habits for life, as your offspring get used to the sounds, sights and smells of the practice. Being familiar with the dentist will help them to feel relaxed and comfortable when they visit.
Children’s teeth are especially at risk between the ages of seven and 14, as the milk teeth begin to be replaced by adult teeth. This is due to the problem of trying to ensure your children brush for the right amount of time and in the right way, not to mention the level of sugar contained in food and drink. Our hygienist can administer fissure sealants and fluoride treatments for children as well as grown-ups who are at a greater risk of decay.
Our friendly team is experienced in making young ones and more nervous patients feel comfortable. We keep appointments as short as they can be and only use tools when absolutely required.
