Family appointments at Lister House Dental Centre, Essex

Between school, extracurricular activities, and our day-to-day routines, we know it can be difficult to corral the kids and get them in to see their dentist. And let’s face it, the last thing we, as parents want, is to have a dental emergency when we’re on our holidays! That’s why the summer break offers the perfect opportunity to book the family in for a routine dental check-up at Lister House Dental Centre.

Routine dentistry for the whole family in Harlow, Essex 

Family appointments are an excellent convenience for multi-child households, as they allow your children to be seen by the dentist on the same day. Our dentists will ensure your child is comfortable during the appointment before conducting their routine exam. They will check the health of their teeth and gums, spot any changes in their dentition, and of course, will be on the lookout for any concerns of gum disease or cavities.

Summer holiday smiles – how to keep your child’s teeth healthy throughout the holidays: 

  • Holidays are for relaxation and indulging, but make sure your child has their sweet treats and fizzy drinks around the same time as their meals! Limiting snacking will reduce the chance of them developing cavities.
  • Don’t forget to pack the floss. Just because school is out doesn’t mean we can let up on our oral hygiene routine! Brushing two times a day for two minutes is the sweet spot.
  • When was the last time they had a new toothbrush? We should aim to buy new toothbrushes every 6-months to avoid introducing harmful bacteria into our mouths. So, with some spare time on our hands this summer, perhaps now’s the time to book a shopping trip for a new toothbrush!
