Who is family dentistry for?

Family dentistry is for everyone in the family – from young children attending their first check-ups through to teenagers and adults needing ongoing care and treatment.

What services are included in family dentistry at Beyond Dental?

Family dentistry typically includes routine check-ups, hygiene care, preventive advice, fillings and support for common dental concerns, with age-appropriate care for children and adults.

Can family dentistry help nervous children?

Yes. The team can take a gentle approach, explain things in an age-appropriate way and help children feel relaxed and confident during their appointments.

What happens at a child’s dental check-up?

A child’s check-up includes an examination of teeth and gums, monitoring development, checking for decay, and advice on brushing, diet and prevention.

Do you provide dental hygiene care for the whole family?

Yes. Hygiene appointments and preventive care can be recommended for adults and children, especially if there is plaque build-up, gum inflammation or difficulty cleaning.

Can family dentistry help prevent cavities?

Yes. Prevention includes regular check-ups, hygiene support, fluoride advice, and guidance on brushing, flossing and diet to reduce the risk of decay.

What should I do if my child has toothache?

If your child has toothache, contact the practice for advice. Tooth pain can have different causes, and an assessment helps diagnose and treat the problem promptly.

Do you offer emergency care for families?

If someone in your family has a dental emergency, contact Beyond Dental as soon as possible so the team can advise on the next steps and arrange care where available.

Can family dentistry include cosmetic advice for adults?

Yes. Adults can discuss concerns about tooth colour, chips, gaps or alignment during routine visits, and your dentist can advise whether cosmetic options may be suitable.

Can you help with braces or Invisalign® for teenagers?

Yes. Orthodontic options may be available for teens depending on their teeth and bite. A consultation is needed to confirm the most suitable treatment.

How can I encourage my child to brush properly?

Use a fluoride toothpaste, supervise brushing until your child has good technique, brush twice daily for two minutes, and ask your dentist for tailored tips during check-ups.

Is family dentistry suitable for older adults too?

Yes. Family dentistry supports adults at every stage, including care for worn teeth, existing restorations and gum health, with treatment plans tailored to individual needs.

Do you offer payment plans for family dentistry?

Yes. Beyond Dental offer payment options and plans that can help families manage routine care and spread costs where appropriate.

Can we book appointments for multiple family members together?

Often, yes – subject to availability. Let the team know you’d like family appointments together and they can advise on scheduling.

How do I register or book family dentistry appointments at Beyond Dental?

You can book via the Beyond Dental website. Once you submit an enquiry, the team will get in touch to arrange appointments for you and your family.

Top 10 Family Dentistry FAQs

Quick answers to the most common questions about family dentistry – from children’s first visits and preventative care to keeping everyone’s smile healthy long term.

1. What is family dentistry?

Family dentistry provides dental care for all ages, so children and adults can be looked after under one roof. It focuses on prevention, routine care, and early treatment where needed.

2. When should my child first visit the dentist?

Many parents choose to bring children in early so they can get used to the dental environment. A gentle first visit can help build confidence and establish good habits from the start.

3. How often should children have dental check-ups?

The best schedule varies by child. Your clinician will recommend an interval based on risk factors such as diet, brushing habits, and previous decay.

4. What can I do to help prevent cavities in my child’s teeth?

Regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between teeth when appropriate, and limiting sugary snacks and drinks all help. Your clinician can also give age-specific advice based on your child’s teeth and routine.

5. What happens if my child is nervous about the dentist?

This is very common. We can take things slowly, explain each step in child-friendly language, and help your child feel in control. Early, positive visits often make future appointments much easier.

6. Can parents stay with their child during the appointment?

In most cases, yes. Whether it’s helpful can depend on your child’s age and confidence, and your clinician can guide you on what tends to work best.

7. What if my child has a toothache or a broken tooth?

Contact us for advice as soon as possible. Toothache and damage can have different causes, and early assessment helps prevent problems from worsening.

8. Do baby teeth matter if they’re going to fall out?

Yes. Baby teeth support speech, eating, confidence, and help guide adult teeth into position. Keeping them healthy can reduce the risk of pain and infection.

9. What treatments are available for children?

The right treatment depends on the child’s age and needs. Many appointments focus on prevention and monitoring, and if treatment is required, your clinician will explain the safest options and what to expect.

10. How can I look after the whole family’s oral health at home?

A consistent routine makes the biggest difference – brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between teeth, and moderating sugary snacks and drinks. Regular check-ups help tailor advice for each family member.

Family Dentistry FAQs

What Is A Family Dental Practice?

A family dental practice should be an approachable and exciting environment where all of the family feel comfortable. Many families may have had negative experiences at dentists in the past, but we are here to show you what family dentistry should be. A family dental practice should support you and your family in looking after your oral health for a lifetime, not just during your dental checkups.

What Do You Offer As A Family Dental Practice?

We have easily accessible and free parking, interest-free payment plans to make any treatment affordable, dedicated spaces where you can clean your teeth prior to your appointment and luxurious clinics that all the family will love. Most importantly, we have a firm focus on instilling a lifelong interest in oral health and will continually work to maintain happy and healthy smiles for your family.

Do You Have Accessible Parking As A Family Dental Practice?

We do! All of our family dental practices have free and accessible parking, meaning you don't have to worry about getting to your appointment early just to make sure you find an appropriate parking space, getting your little ones out of the car or crossing busy roads to get to our clinics.

How Often Should You Visit Your Family Dental Practice?

Every patient is different, however, we would generally advise that you visit your family dental practice twice a year. If your dentist notices something concerning, you might be asked to come back slightly sooner. Of course, if you have any concerns about your oral health between appointments, simply get in touch to arrange an appointment. It’s better to have everything checked over than leave an issue to develop further!

How Our Family Dental Practice Can Help Children Overcome A Fear of Dentists

Sometimes people have a fear of the dentist, however, we are here to completely change your opinion. You’re more than welcome to come by our family dental practice before your appointment, just to get a feel for our relaxed environment and to help your children feel comfortable. At our clinics, there is no rush between appointments, so we can take the time to make sure your child feels settled before the appointment begins.

Our dentists are amazing at what they do and that plays a big part in helping children to overcome their fear. After one appointment with us in our family dental practice, they will realise that there is nothing to be scared of and visiting the dentist can be a fun experience rather than a negative one.
