Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Oral health education is practical teaching for children and parents: how to brush, what to eat, and how to keep teeth healthy between visits. We assess your child at a consultation and pitch the guidance to their age.
Our dentists provide these sessions at our Primrose Hill practice.
It is frustrating when brushing does not seem to stop plaque building up. Sometimes the technique is missing a surface; sometimes weak enamel makes teeth more vulnerable and prone to discolouration. Left alone, decay can turn into a dental infection. Our paediatric dentistry in London uses dental x-rays where needed and adds fluoride treatments and sealants for molars where the risk is high.
Children's dental exams and cleanings and dental hygiene for children and teens keep plaque under control. If a tooth is badly damaged, a paediatric crown protects it until it falls out naturally.
We examine first, so the teaching matches what is actually happening in your child's mouth. Children's care is provided by our dentists, with the practice led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071). Costs are itemised before any treatment is agreed.
Education sits alongside our other preventive support: infant oral care for babies, diet and nutrition counselling for families, and sports guards for young athletes. A consultation sets the right timing.
Leave your number and we will call you back. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Children and parents who want to get the home routine right, and children who need a positive introduction to the dentist. If your child already has decay or is afraid of the clinic, that is a reason to come, not a reason to feel guilty. We can also help you work out which of our children's dental treatments fits your child.
A consultation lets us assess your child's current oral health and decide how to introduce the habits, at a pace that keeps the visit positive.
A gentle introduction to the room and the team, so your child knows what the dentist is before anything is done.
We carry out children's dental exams and cleanings to assess current oral health, which gives us a baseline and shows us where to focus the teaching.
We demonstrate brushing with age-appropriate tools and show both of you how to reach every surface, including the back teeth that usually get missed.
We go through how sugar and acid affect baby teeth and point out the hidden risks in everyday snacks and drinks, with safer alternatives.
Regular reviews let us correct technique and see what is working. We are honest that results take consistency over months, not days.
Our clinical team guides this process through children's dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental hygiene for children and teens.
Where treatment is needed we repair damaged teeth with tooth-coloured composite resin, use a diode laser for tongue-tie division, and offer removable aligners where alignment treatment is appropriate. We also give families nutrition advice.
Yes. We assess your child at a clinical consultation and plan the education around what we find.
Fees are confirmed at the initial consultation, with a clear breakdown based on what your child needs.
The first session happens within the consultation. How much follow-up is needed depends on your child, and we set that out at the first appointment.
No. It is teaching, not a procedure, and we keep it relaxed and free of blame so children are happy to learn.
Our dentists give you the support needed to establish a healthy routine, and a consultation lets us assess your child and answer your questions.
