Just like little seeds grow strong, so do little smiles with the right care. We’re here to gently guide your child’s dental journey, fostering healthy habits and confident grins that will shine for years to come.
Remember being a little one and feeling a bit nervous about the dentist? We definitely do! Helping children build good dental habits early is important, but we believe it should always feel positive, empowering, and even a little fun.
That’s why at Albany Dental, we’ve created a warm, child-friendly space where little ones can feel safe and relaxed from the moment they walk in. Our gentle approach helps ease nerves and build confidence, turning each visit into a positive experience they’ll actually look forward to.
Whether it’s their very first appointment or part of their ongoing care, we’re here to support every step of their dental journey. Scroll down to see how we help growing smiles thrive.
We make first dental visits fun and easy. Kids can explore the space, meet our friendly team, and even take a ride in the chair, helping them feel at ease and excited to come back.
Little teeth need big protection! We offer gentle preventive care like sealants and fluoride, and teach your child (and you) how to brush and floss with confidence.
Our experienced team keeps a close eye on how your child’s teeth and jaw are developing, giving you clear advice and early guidance as they grow.
Our dentists genuinely love working with children. With kind words, big smiles and plenty of encouragement, we create a space where your child feels safe, heard and happy.
We understand you want the best dental care for kids in a family-friendly environment. That’s why we make checkups gentle and fun, focusing on preventative care and addressing common issues as they grow. Here are some practical tips to help them get ready for their visit:
Play "dentist" at home! Let them count your teeth or look in their own mouth with a mirror to get familiar with teeth and mouths.
Watch fun, simple videos or read books about visiting the dentist before their appointment to help them know what to expect.
Brush together! Make brushing a family activity for two minutes, twice a day, using a soft brush and a tiny bit of toothpaste (check the right amount for their age).
We get it: taking your children to the dentist can feel like a big deal for everyone! That’s why we focus on making children’s dentistry a gentle and positive experience. Our child-friendly dentists are here to help your child feel comfortable and happy during their visit.
Our team is fully qualified and registered with the Dental Board of Australia and AHPRA, so you can feel confident they’re in experienced, caring hands. We also bulk bill for families who qualify for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) and offer flexible payment options to help make great dental care more accessible.
Very warm and friendly staff. From the man at the reception, to the dental assistants, and the dentist himself. I was nervous visiting a new dentist after a long time, but they made me feel comfortable. They were helpful, genuine and warm. I’d recommend Albany dental to anyone seeking professional and kind dental service on the central coast.
Can not rate high enough. Have been coming here for a couple of years, and always have the best experience. All the staff are really lovely; they have always been fully informative and transparent with what they need to do, and most importantly if it doesn’t need doing, they don’t. Good dentists are hard to find. Great ones are impossible. Look no further.
The best dentist on the coast. So friendly, comforting and affordable. I had a bad experience at a different dentist’s office that caused me to avoid going until I found the team at Albany, my faith has been restored. Thank you for taking care of my smile 😁
An extremely warm and welcoming dental surgery! All the staff members my client and I met today were so friendly, polite and informative!! We were very impressed! Highly recommend!
I went to Albany because of all their 5 star reviews and I am more than happy to add to them. Excellent service, prompt, professional, friendly, affordable and most importantly, the quality of work was 10/10.
It’s usually best to let baby teeth fall out on their own schedule. Wiggling the tooth gently is okay, but pulling it before it’s ready can hurt or cause infection. If the tooth is causing pain or it’s been very loose for a long time, our qualified team provides gentle dentistry for kids and can check if it needs a little help coming out.
A good rule of thumb is around their first birthday, or within 6 months of when their first tooth appears. These early visits help us spot potential issues early and give you practical tips for dental care for kids at home. As a child-friendly dentist, we make this first visit easy and positive.
It’s very common for young children and usually not a problem. However, if it continues strongly past age 4 or 5, it can sometimes affect how their adult teeth come in or how their jaw develops. We can chat about gentle ways to help them stop at their next checkup. As dentists experienced in children’s dental care in your area, our experienced team can offer advice, and if treatment is ever needed, we have flexible payment options.
When you call or get in touch, please let us know your child’s age and if it’s their first visit or a regular checkup. Mentioning any specific concerns you have also helps us prepare for their visit.
