Children’s dentistry at our Moseley, Barnt Green and Blythe Valley Park practices
A child’s early experiences at the dentist shape how they feel about it for life. Our check-ups are quick, gentle and interactive, in language children understand.
We check for plaque, teach brushing skills for home and watch how the jaw is developing, so any crowding or bite issue can be referred for orthodontic advice at the right time.
Our team regularly visits local schools to teach oral health, and is used to caring for nervous children at their own pace.

Questions we're asked
Children’s dentistry FAQs: Birmingham, Solihull and Bromsgrove
When should I take my child for their first dental appointment?
We recommend bringing your child to see us as soon as their first primary tooth erupts, or by their first birthday at the latest. These early visits are about “familiarisation”—getting them used to the sights, sounds, and smells of the practice so they feel completely at home.
What happens during the first dental visit?
The dentist will examine your child’s teeth, gums, and mouth, may demonstrate how to brush teeth correctly and discuss healthy diet choices, and usually conducts the visit gently and non-invasively to familiarise the child with the dental environment.
How do I prepare my child for their first dental appointment?
Talk positively about the dentist to reduce anxiety, read books or watch videos about visiting the dentist, and avoid using the dentist as a threat, such as saying “if you don’t brush, the dentist will be cross.
