"She was not ready to get the treatment done as we have visited 3-4 dentists, but doctor's expertise in handling treatment along with patience made the whole treatment easy for her."

How a child's visit is run
Nothing happens until your child is comfortable. The first few minutes are often just talking, showing the instruments and letting your child sit in the chair. If a child is not ready, stopping and coming back is a perfectly good outcome, because one forced visit can create a fear that lasts for years. The clinic also has a kids' corner, with a play mat and toys, for the wait beforehand.
What the clinic treats in children
- Check-ups and cleaning, from the first teeth onwards
- Fluoride and pit-fissure sealants, which protect the grooves of back teeth from decay
- Fillings for cavities in milk teeth and new adult teeth
- Pulpotomy and kids' crowns when decay has reached the nerve of a milk tooth
- Tongue-tie treatment when a tight tongue is causing problems
- Injuries, such as a chipped or knocked tooth
Why milk teeth are worth treating
Parents are sometimes told a decayed milk tooth does not matter because it will fall out anyway. It does matter. An untreated cavity causes pain and infection, disturbs eating and sleep, and early loss of a milk tooth can leave too little room for the adult tooth behind it.
Getting ready at home
- Plan the first visit by the first birthday, or when the first tooth appears, before any problem begins.
- Book a time when your child is usually rested and fed.
- Keep the words simple. "The dentist will count your teeth" works better than "it won't hurt".
- If your child has special needs, tell the team when you book, so the visit can be planned around them.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a separate children's clinic?
No. Modenta is a general clinic that treats children and adults, so parents and children can be seen in one place. The dentists who treat children are listed on this page.
Can I stay with my child during treatment?
Ask the team when you book. Most young children feel safer with a parent close by, and you can talk through what would suit your child.
My child sucks a thumb. Should I worry?
Most children stop by themselves. If the habit carries on as adult teeth come through, ask at a check-up, because it can affect how the teeth grow.
Do you see children with special needs?
Yes. Tell the team about your child's needs when you book, and the visit will be taken slowly.
