How to prepare your child for a dental visit

Dental Visits

I’ll arrive early and be greeted by the reception team who will show me around our amazing Waiting Area where I can play on the iPad games.

I’ll take the stairs to the lower floor where there’s a playroom and Pac-Man games!

I will go into the surgery then I’ll lay down sit down in the comfy chair and put on sunglasses.

I will watch my favourite cartoon whilst the dentist counts my teeth.

ALL FINISHED! I get to choose my stickers from the drawer.

I then head back up to reception and will receive a prize from the Prize Tower! All done!

Hygiene Visits

I’ll arrive early and be greeted by the reception team who will show me around our amazing Waiting Area where I can play on the iPad games.

My hygienist will come to collect me from the Waiting Area.

I can have a go at brushing big animals’ teeth at the Brushing Stations.

Into the surgery - I will then learn how to brush my teeth with the hygienist’s help.

I’ll then have my teeth cleaned so they sparkle!

ALL FINISHED! I get to choose my stickers and toothbrush from the drawer.

I then head back up to reception and will receive a prize from the Prize Tower! All done!
