Introduce Your Kids Early!

Around 1-2 years of age is a great age to start bringing your kids.

This way we can slowly introduce them to our Clinical rooms and the whole experience, making it great fun and preventing any anxiety.  

Supporting parents in understanding the importance of myofunctional therapy and the treatment of tongue ties in dental care for 1-2 year olds is crucial for their child's well-being.

As parents, you play a vital role in your child's oral health journey, especially during their early years.

Understanding the significance of myofunctional therapy and the treatment of tongue ties can empower you to make informed decisions and support your child's oral development.

1. Early Identification and Guidance: We understand that navigating your child's dental care can sometimes feel overwhelming. That's why we're here to provide guidance and support every step of the way. Our team is trained to recognize signs of tongue ties and other oral issues during routine check-ups, ensuring early intervention when needed.
2. Collaborative Care Approach: We believe in a collaborative approach to your child's dental health. By working closely with our team of professionals, including myofunctional therapists, paediatricians, and lactation consultants, we can tailor a comprehensive treatment plan that meets your child's unique needs. You're not alone in this journey; we're here to support you and your child every step of the way.
3. Empowering Education: We're committed to empowering you with the knowledge and resources you need to make informed decisions about your child's oral health. We'll take the time to explain the importance of myofunctional therapy and the treatment of tongue ties, answering any questions you may have along the way. Our goal is to ensure you feel confident and supported in caring for your child's dental needs.
4. Practical Support for Feeding Challenges: We understand that feeding challenges, such as difficulty latching during breastfeeding or bottle feeding, can be stressful for both you and your baby. Myofunctional therapy can offer practical solutions to improve tongue function and feeding efficiency, helping to alleviate these challenges and promote a positive feeding experience for you and your child.
5. Speech and Language Development: We recognize the critical role that proper tongue function plays in speech and language development. By addressing tongue ties and oral muscle dysfunction early on through myofunctional therapy, we can help support your child's speech development and communication skills, laying the foundation for lifelong success.
6. Guidance for Post-Treatment Care: Following treatment for tongue ties, we'll provide you with guidance and support for post-treatment care. This may include therapeutic exercises and techniques to promote healing and optimize tongue mobility. We'll be here to answer any questions you have and provide ongoing support as your child continues their oral health journey.
7. Celebrating Milestones Together: Every milestone in your child's oral health journey is worth celebrating, and we'll be here to celebrate with you. From their first tooth to their first words, we're committed to supporting you and your child every step of the way.

At Crown Holistic Dental we're more than just a dental team – we're your partners in your child's oral health journey. Together, we can ensure your child receives the care, support, and guidance they need for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
