Neglecting dental health will have

Long-term consequences for your child

Many parents wait until their child complains of pain before booking check-up. But:
  • Cavities progress faster in children than adults
  • Thumb sucking, dummy use, and mouth breathing can shift growing teeth
  • A painful first visit can create lifelong fear of the dentist
At Middleborough Dental Care we’ve seen how early care sets up your child’s health and confidence for life. That’s why we designed our space to be extremely kid-friendly.

We make going to the dentist an experience they’ll love

The earlier your child starts with good dental habits the easier it will be to maintain strong and healthy teeth. Our child-first approach includes:

Tailored Consultation

Including brushing lessons that make oral care fun

No Pain Guarantee

Anxiety relief and gentle numbing for nervous little ones

Fun Environment

High-fives and celebrations for every milestone

Let’s make dental care feel like a win for both of you

I recently had the pleasure of being treated at Middleborough Dental Care, where Dr. Nicole assisted me with the removal of my wisdom teeth. Dr. Nicole’s professionalism and genuine care made my experience exceptional.

From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the friendly and welcoming atmosphere of the clinic. Dr. Nicole took the time to explain the procedure in detail, ensuring I was comfortable and informed throughout.

Her expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the procedure, and I felt well taken care of every step of the way. Dr. Nicole’s caring nature and dedication to her patients truly set Middleborough Dental Care apart.

I highly recommend Middleborough Dental Care and Dr. Nicole to anyone in need of dental care.

FAQs

Why is it important my child visits a dentist with experience in paediatric dentistry?
Visiting a dentist that is experienced at making a child’s check-up fun and positive, will really help your child to love the dentist. It also means you don’t have to feel embarrassed or worry about how your child acts during the dental visit – we love kids and welcome even the most anxious little patients. Our passion is making them feel calm and comfortable.
What can my child expect from their first check up?
Upon arrival at our office, you will be greeted by the friendliest dentist in Box Hill. There are toys to play with in the waiting room. Once it’s time for your check up, your parents are welcome to accompany you into the clinic room where you get to sit in our magic chair! You’ll get some cool sunglasses to wear, and we’ll show you our sparkling light and explain what will be doing each step of the way. We have a tell-show-do policy, so you know exactly what to expect! At the end we’ll give you a fun pack with a brand new toothbrush, and give high-fives all round.
Who is eligible for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule?
Children aged 2-17, who are eligible for medicare, may have access to the Child Dental Benefits Schedule. For more information talk to our friendly staff or visit the Service Australia website.
Why is it important for my child to visit the dentist?
Even with great oral hygiene, it is common for children to have plaque build up and cavities. The earlier this is detected, the easier the treatment will be. Children’s enamel is very sensitive and prone to erosion. We can treat this with sealants to prevent the need for fillings. It’s also a great idea to start visits from a young age to instill in your child an understanding of the importance of dental hygiene.
How can I prepare my child for a dental visit?
The most important thing parents can do is model being calm and positive about the dentist. Rather than saying “Brush your teeth properly or the dentist will pull all your teeth out!”, try instead saying “Let’s brush your teeth well to make sure you have a beautiful smile when you visit the dentist”.

Never worry about ‘Going To The Dentist’ again

Make the best decision for your child’s dental health and future.
