Free Teen Dental Care

Start good oral health habits at an early age

Looking after your teen’s oral health has never been easier.

Teeth are a crucial part of our body, we all use them on a day to day basis and yet we only get one adult set. It is very important that we look after our teeth at an early age to avoid any serious complications at a later age. Oral health is generally the gateway to your general health and well-being.

All our Auckland Family Dental practices offer free dental care to teens up to their 18th birthday - helping them form good oral health habits in their growing years.

Teen Dental Care: What's Covered and Why It Matters

At our dental practice, we understand the importance of adolescent oral health. That's why we provide comprehensive free dental care for teens from year 9 through to their 18th birthday. Our commitment to your teen's dental well-being includes the following services:

1. Annual Dental Checkups: Regular checkups are the foundation of good oral health. We ensure that your teen receives thorough annual examinations to detect and address any dental issues early.

2. Dental Cleaning: Professional dental cleanings help maintain healthy gums and teeth. Our team will ensure your teen's smile stays clean and vibrant.

3. X-Rays: Diagnostic x-rays are a crucial tool in assessing dental health. We use them when needed to ensure comprehensive care.

4. Preventative Dentistry: Prevention is key to a healthy smile. Our preventative treatments are designed to safeguard your teen's teeth from common issues like cavities and gum disease.

5. Dental Fillings and Tooth Extractions: If necessary, we provide fillings to address cavities and extractions for cases where tooth removal is required.

Why Is Teen Oral Health So Important?

Teenage years bring significant physical changes, including those affecting teeth and appearance. It's a critical time for oral health for several reasons:


Dietary Habits

As teens take charge of their food choices, they may develop poor dietary habits. This can lead to tooth decay, making regular dental care crucial.

Hormonal Changes

Higher hormonal activity during puberty can make teens more susceptible to issues like gingivitis, toothaches, gum sensitivity, and increased plaque production. Regular dental visits are essential for early detection and prevention.

By ensuring your teen receives annual dental visits, we help set them on the path to excellent oral health. These visits also establish healthy oral habits that will serve them well into adulthood.

I don't usually place reviews unless I feel the need to.

I took my daughter here today for her first consultation for braces and oh my goodness. What an awesome team!

They made my daughter (who was naturally a little nervous) feel so relaxed (..and not to mention made my little one happy by making small talk with her)

Can't wait to start with my daughters braces treatment. Affordable treatment plans, good location, great parking and a very friendly team.

Keep up the good work! Highly recommended to all.

A 5-star rating.

The entire experience I had with the team from booking through to consult was fantastic...

Have you ever been to the dentist and feel you aren't being given all the information you need to make an informed decision about how to proceed moving forward? I have. BUT this is a dental practice you can trust.

He walked me through the options step by step, risk assessing each and really helped me decide on what was best for me.

I cannot rate these guys enough... Incredible dental practice. Thanks very much!

A 5-star rating.
