Children's Dentistry
Local Dentist for Kids
At Curran Dental, we strive to offer a positive dental experience in order to ensure children of all ages maintain good oral health and a love of attending the dentist.
From the moment your child walks through our doors, we prioritise gaining their trust and work hard to make sure that they’re comfortable, happy, and enjoy their visit.
We recognise that no one else in the world knows your child better than you do, so we’ve adopted a family-centric approach to dental care. Therefore, parents, siblings, and guardians can be involved every step of the way.
“We recommend booking in for a child’s first dental check up between 12 and 18 months old. ”
Your child should see a dentist for regular dental check-ups and for advice and tips about caring for their teeth, gums and mouth.
Education and establishing a dental routine for your kids from a young age is essential for their longer term oral health. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings can help prevent cavities and gum disease, and catch any potential issues early on.
Curran Dental bulk bill Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) eligible patients so you don't have any out-of-pocket expenses. The CDBS is a scheme by Medicare that provides up to $1000 benefits per child for basic dental services over two consecutive calendar years, including check ups, x-rays, cleaning, fissure sealing, fluoride and fillings. Please contact us to check the eligibility of your child.
