Children’s Dentistry
A healthy smile starts in childhood, and early preventative care with your family dentist can help lay the foundation for your child’s lifelong oral health.
At U-Smile Dental Club, we know your kids’ teeth will grow with them, and regular check-ups with our experienced family dentists allow us to track and manage their oral development, as well as any problems that may arise.
We’re committed to providing comprehensive dental care for all ages. It’s why we take the time to understand your child’s smile journey and their comfort level to develop a treatment plan tailored to their growth.
We recommend your children visit us for the first time when they’re 12 months old, with regular check-ups every six to twelve months to protect their smile from childhood to adolescence, and on into their adult years.
Your child’s specific dental needs will change with every stage of their development, and our comprehensive range of services is designed to answer the individual needs of every young patient:
A comprehensive check of your child’s teeth, gums, and tongue for any signs of decay or possible infection.
A deep scale and clean to help reduce plaque and tartar buildup in your child’s mouth.
Tooth fillings in a variety of different materials to strengthen your smile and blend in with your natural teeth.
Orthodontic treatment and assessment to help straighten your child’s smile and align their bite.
CBCT 3D X-ray scanning helps us see what’s going on in your child’s mouth, with reduced radiation compared to traditional X-rays.
Custom-made protective appliances to help reduce the risk of dental injury while your child plays their favourite sports.
Care and maintenance tips for your child to practice at home and establish good habits to support their long-term oral health.
Our main goal is always to preserve your child’s natural teeth. This can mean more complex treatment will be required, such as root canal therapy or a dental crown, to prevent certain issues like gum disease or cavities from developing.
In some cases, when the tooth cannot be saved, a tooth extraction may be required. We’ll walk you through every option after we’ve conducted a thorough dental examination, so you can make an informed decision about your child’s smile and the future of their oral health.
Any invasive dental procedure comes with risk, and you should always seek a professional dental assessment and second opinion before proceeding with any treatment plan.
Early detection and treatment can help us stop decay or infection from developing and progressing in your child’s mouth, and we believe that every child should have access to timely and professional dental support.
That’s why we’re a CDBS dentist with flexible payment plans available for a range of healthcare providers. Eligibility applies, and you should always check your specific benefits and ask for a personalised quote before pursuing treatment.
You may be able to access up to $1,158 per child in essential dental services over two calendar years with the Child Dental Benefits Schedule, but strict eligibility applies, and your child must be:

We’ll guide you through the process, from what to expect to the benefits and treatments available, so you can pursue the path that makes sense for your child and your budget.
Our friendly team is committed to providing preventative dental care for the whole family, no matter how long it’s been since your last checkup.
We believe everyone deserves to enjoy a healthy smile, and if kids are ready to take the next step on their oral health journey, we’re here to help.
Your child can experience technology-enhanced care with our clinical equipment and commitment to providing personalised care for the whole family.
Your family’s well-being is our top priority, and we’ve designed our care to support your child at every stage of their smile journey.
We strive to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere at every appointment, so your child can know what to expect from their experience at U-Smile Dental Club.

We recommend your child first visit the dentist when they’re 12 months old, with regular checkups every six to twelve months (unless your dentist advises more frequent appointments).
Early visits can help us catch any signs of decay or gum disease and prevent the condition from further developing. They also allow us to share tips with you and your child to help them maintain good oral hygiene and protect their smile between appointments.
Your child’s first dental visit will typically be short and focused on familiarising them with the clinic experience, and may include:
It should last anywhere between 30 and 45 minutes, although this will depend on the condition of their teeth and gums, and your dentist will advise you on your child’s individual circumstances.
Medicare covers children’s dental treatment in Australia through the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS). For eligible patients, this can include:
CDBS will not cover orthodontic, cosmetic, and hospital-based treatment, and eligibility applies. At U-Smile Dental Club, we accept CDBS and also offer interest-free payment plans for eligible patients with select private healthcare insurers to help every family access comprehensive dental care.

If your child has never been to the dentist before, there are a few steps you can take to help guide them through the process before they sit in our chair:
Once your child has had their first appointment and knows what to expect, they may feel more confident, and this should grow with each new visit.
A consistent oral hygiene routine, fewer sugary snacks, and regular dental check-ups can help minimise the risk of cavities developing in your child’s mouth.
