Why early dental care matters for your child

Why should my child see an orthodontist at age 7?

Early intervention to guide proper development

Did you know that your child could benefit from orthodontic treatment as early as age 7? At our specialist Worcester Park clinic, we offer orthodontics – early intervention treatments that guide your child’s jaw development and tooth eruption, often preventing complex problems before they fully develop.

Unlike traditional teenage orthodontics, interceptive treatment works with your child’s natural growth patterns to create space for permanent teeth, correct bite issues, and address harmful habits like thumb sucking. Many children who receive early intervention need shorter, simpler treatment as teenagers – or sometimes no further treatment at all.

Our Worcester Park team of paediatric specialists uses child-friendly technology including iTero digital scanners and offers treatments like palatal expansion, Invisalign Teen/Kids, and functional appliances. As Invisalign Diamond Apex providers, we’re in the top 1% of European clinics for exceptional results.

I’ve been going to Love Teeth for almost two years since I got my composite bonding done. Everyone is so kind, and great at what they do.

Absolutely fantastic dentist! As a very nervous patient that suffers badly with due to health I have stayed away from dentists for years, Megna is very calming and professional she has made me feel very relaxed, confident and comfortable about having work done, always checking to see if I’m ok whilst working and always telling me what she is doing. I am no longer nervous and am very happy with the work that’s been done. I would 100% recommend Megna and Love teeth Chessington , the staff are always very kind and helpful too! I am very to them all. The whole experience has been brilliant. Thank you

Had a done today by the lovely Rohan and Debi. Was a quick and easy process. They talked me through everything letting me know what was going on, and kept making sure I was okay throughout. Couldn’t ask for a better service, both of them were amazing. Thank you x

My daughters (6 and 2,5 years) and I went went to Love Teeth dental practice today. It was my first dental appointment, and I couldn’t recommend them more! They were so helpful and professional, and incredibly good with my kids! I could not recommend them enough!

I was most impressed when I arrived with everyone at reception being so helpful and welcoming. My appointment was on time and went straight to the room greeted by two staff. Dr. Mina and another had very constructive advice by her on my teeth and course of procedures to action upon. I left feeling assured of the care I would have on my next visit to Love Teeth at Cheam

My appointment was regarding the invisalign . Scheduling appointment was easy, completed forms online to save time on arrival. Dr Megna Shah & her team were welcoming and very informative. If you are an anxious patient like myself, rest assured you will be very well looked after.

Very welcoming and thorough advice on composite for my teeth!

After having such a great experience myself, I took my 17 year old son for a check up. Again the experience was brilliant and consistent to mine. My son can’t wait to start treatment which is lovely to see, I will definitely be moving my husband over to love teeth as well. Thank you love teeth

We recommend bringing your child for their first dental visit around their first birthday or when their first tooth appears – whichever comes first. These early visits aren’t about extensive . Instead, they’re about building familiarity with the dental environment, allowing our team to check your child’s oral development, and providing guidance on caring for baby teeth.

Many parents across Surrey are surprised to learn that early dental care can issues before they develop. Baby teeth are crucial for speech development, proper nutrition, and guiding permanent teeth into the correct . At our Worcester Park children’s clinic and across all our Surrey locations (Sutton, Cheam, Chessington, Stonecot), we make first visits fun and stress-free, setting the stage for a lifetime of positive dental experiences.

Many parents don’t realise that orthodontic issues can be identified and addressed as early as age 7. This is called interceptive orthodontics, and it can more complex problems later. Early assessment allows us to monitor jaw growth, identify issues before they worsen, harmful oral habits like thumb sucking, and guide permanent teeth into proper positions.

Early intervention doesn’t always mean immediate treatment. Often, we’re simply monitoring development and planning the optimal time to begin treatment if needed. This proactive approach can reduce treatment time, avoid tooth extractions, and sometimes eliminate the need for more extensive orthodontics later.

As winners of the 2024 Child-Friendly Practice of the Year award, our team has extensive experience in early orthodontic assessment and across all our Surrey locations.

At Love Teeth, we understand that childhood dental experiences shape lifelong attitudes towards oral health. That’s why we’ve created an environment specifically designed to make children feel comfortable, safe, and even excited about dental visits.

Book your child’s dental appointment in Surrey

Every child deserves a healthy, happy smile. At Love Teeth, we’re passionate about providing the best in children’s dentistry across Surrey.

Get in touch to arrange an appointment at Surrey’s first clinic for kids at Worcester Park, or visit our clinics in Cheam, Chessington, Stonecott or Sutton for care that puts your child first.

Start cleaning your baby’s gums even before teeth appear, using a soft, damp cloth after feeding. Once the first tooth erupts (usually around 6 months), begin brushing twice daily with a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and a tiny smear of fluoride toothpaste (about the size of a grain of rice). At age 3, you can increase to a pea-sized amount. Children typically need help brushing until around age 7-8, when they develop the dexterity to brush effectively themselves. At Love Teeth, our team provides demonstrations during appointments to ensure parents and master proper brushing technique.

Talk positively about the dentist in the days leading up to the appointment, avoiding words like "pain," "hurt," or "needle." Read children’s books about visiting the dentist or watch age-appropriate videos. Let your child know they’ll meet friendly people who help keep teeth healthy and strong. Avoid using dental visits as threats or punishments. At our Surrey practices, particularly our Worcester Park children’s clinic, we’ve designed the environment to be welcoming and fun. Many are excited to visit once they see the cinema and child-friendly atmosphere. Schedule when children are typically more cooperative and well-rested.

Yes, dental X-rays are extremely safe for children. We use digital X-rays at Love Teeth, which produce up to 80% less radiation than traditional film X-rays. The amount of radiation exposure is minimal – comparable to what your child receives during a short flight. We only take X-rays when clinically necessary, typically to check for cavities between teeth that can’t be seen during visual examination, assess the development of teeth, or evaluate orthodontic needs. Children wear protective lead aprons during X-rays for added safety. The benefits of detecting problems early far outweigh the minimal radiation exposure.

This is a dental emergency requiring immediate attention. Find the tooth and handle it by the crown (top part) only – never touch the root. If the tooth is dirty, rinse it gently with milk or saline solution (never tap water or soap). Try to place it back in the socket if possible, holding it in place with clean gauze. If you can’t reinsert it, keep it moist by placing it in milk, saline solution, or having your child hold it in their cheek (if old enough not to swallow it). Call Love Teeth immediately on . Time is critical – the tooth has the best chance of being saved if reinserted within 30 minutes. For baby teeth that are knocked out, don’t attempt to reinsert them, but still contact us for assessment.

The ideal time for orthodontic assessment is around age 7, though treatment may not begin until later. Early assessment allows us to identify issues like crossbites, severe crowding, protruding front teeth, or jaw growth problems while they’re easier to address. Some benefit from early interceptive treatment ages 7-10, which can prevent more complex problems later. Most comprehensive orthodontic treatment begins between ages 11-14, when most permanent teeth have erupted. However, every child is different. At Love Teeth, we offer Invisalign Teen for teenagers who want discreet orthodontic treatment, as well as traditional options. Our Diamond Apex Invisalign provider status means your child receives expert orthodontic care across all our Surrey locations.

We typically recommend dental check-ups every six months for children. However, some children may need more frequent visits if they’re at higher risk for cavities, have orthodontic appliances, or have other dental concerns. Regular visits allow us to monitor oral development, catch problems early when they’re easier to treat, provide professional cleaning and fluoride treatment, and reinforce good oral hygiene habits. These routine also help children become comfortable with dental visits, reducing anxiety as they grow. At our Worcester Park children’s clinic and across all Love Teeth Surrey locations, we make every visit positive and educational.

Dental anxiety in children is common, and we’re experts at helping children feel comfortable. Our team, recognised with the 2024 Child-Friendly Practice of the Year award, uses gentle, patient-centred techniques. We never rush appointments, explain everything in child-friendly language, use "tell-show-do" techniques to build trust, celebrate brave behaviour without fear, and allow parents to stay with their child during treatment. For children with significant anxiety, we offer gentle sedation options including happy air (nitrous oxide) to help them relax. Our Worcester Park clinic’s cinema and engaging environment help distract and calm nervous children. Many parents tell us their previously anxious children actually look forward to visiting Love Teeth.

Yes, if your child plays sports or activities with risk of mouth injury (football, rugby, hockey, basketball, skateboarding, etc.), a custom sports guard is essential. Sports injuries account for a significant percentage of dental emergencies in children. A properly fitted sports guard protects teeth from chips, fractures, or being knocked out, cushions blows that could cause jaw fractures, and protects soft tissues like lips, tongue, and cheeks. At Love Teeth, we create custom sports guards to your child’s mouth, superior protection and comfort compared to shop-bought versions. They’re available in various colours, making them appealing to young athletes. Custom guards are more comfortable, stay in place better, and allow easier breathing and speaking during sports.
