Children’s Dental Check-Up
To celebrate the new school year and welcome the latest generation of Lord Deramore’s pupils to Heslington village, Heslington Dental Practice is offering children’s dental check-ups for just 99p — for all new young patients joining us this term.
We’re right around the corner from the school on Main Street, and we want to make it as easy as possible for local families to get their children registered with a trusted, friendly dentist in the village. There really has never been a better time to get your child’s dental health on track before the school year kicks off.
Why Children’s Dental Health Matters
The primary school years are one of the most important windows for a child’s dental development. It’s the period when baby teeth are falling out, adult teeth are coming through, and habits around brushing, diet and dental visits are being formed for life. Getting regular check-ups from an early age means we can:
- Spot any problems with developing teeth early, before they become painful or expensive to treat
- Give personalised advice on brushing technique and diet for children at different stages
- Monitor the transition from baby teeth to adult teeth and flag anything that needs attention
- Help children build a positive relationship with the dentist — so they don’t grow up anxious about dental visits
- Check for early signs of orthodontic issues that may benefit from treatment down the line
Many children who develop dental anxiety as adults can trace it back to a difficult early experience at the dentist. Our whole approach with young patients is to make every visit calm, friendly and reassuring — so going to the dentist feels like something positive rather than something to dread.
What’s Included in the 99p Check-Up?
Your child’s 99p introductory check-up at Heslington Dental Practice includes everything we’d carry out at a standard examination:
- A thorough examination of all teeth — both any remaining baby teeth and emerging adult teeth
- A gum and soft tissue check to make sure everything is healthy
- X-rays if clinically required
- Practical advice for parents on diet, brushing routines and fluoride use appropriate to your child’s age
- A clear, honest summary of your child’s dental health and any next steps if needed
The whole appointment is designed to be relaxed and positive. We take our time with young patients, explain what we’re doing in simple terms, and never rush. If your child is a little nervous, just let us know when you book — we’ll do everything we can to make them feel comfortable.
We’re Just Around the Corner
Heslington Dental Practice is located at 11/12 Main Street, Heslington — just a short walk from Lord Deramore’s Primary School on School Lane. Whether you’re dropping off in the morning or picking up in the afternoon, fitting in a dental appointment for your child couldn’t be more convenient.
We’re a family-run practice with over 15 years of experience, and we’re proud to be part of the Heslington village community. We can register the whole family at once — so while we’re seeing your child, we can sort everyone else’s registration too.
