What does a children’s dentist do?
A children’s dentist helps assess and care for a child’s teeth and gums as they grow. A visit may include checking for tooth decay, looking at how teeth are developing, discussing brushing and diet, and answering questions from the child or parent. The right care depends on the child’s age, dental history and needs, so we assess this in person.
Dr Chalita le Roux provides personalised care from consultation through treatment. She holds a BChD cum laude from the University of Pretoria, awarded in 2020, and is a member of SAAAD. Parents are welcome to share any concerns about a child’s comfort, previous dental experiences or oral health before the examination.
What happens at my child’s dental visit?
The visit starts with a conversation about your child’s health, dental history and any symptoms or concerns. Dr le Roux then examines the mouth and explains what she finds in clear, age-appropriate language. If further assessment or treatment is appropriate, she discusses the options with you before proceeding.
A child may feel unsure about a dental visit, and comfort levels vary. You can tell the practice about worries or sensitivities when arranging the appointment. The examination and any recommended care are tailored to the child; we assess this in person rather than assuming every child needs the same approach.
How can I help my child care for their teeth?
Regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste, age-appropriate supervision and a balanced approach to sugary snacks and drinks can support oral health. Children may need help brushing effectively, particularly while their coordination is developing. At the appointment, ask for guidance suited to your child’s age, teeth and routine.
After a check-up or treatment, follow the advice given for brushing, eating and any symptoms to watch for. If your child has pain, swelling, a damaged tooth or another concern, contact the practice to discuss an assessment. The cause and suitable next steps are determined in person.
