Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Paediatric dentistry covers the dental care of children from their first tooth until they reach adulthood. Our dentists look after children at every stage of that journey, with the practice led by a GDC-registered specialist periodontist.
We are a CQC-registered dental practice in Primrose Hill. Every child is examined and given a plan before any treatment is discussed, so the first visit is about finding out what your child actually needs.
We publish our fees on the page because a surprise bill is a poor way to end a dental visit. Every fee is itemised before you commit to anything.
A first consultation costs £195, and that fee goes towards any treatment that follows. You can read what happens at your child's dental consultation and how to book before you come in.
Some children find dental visits hard. We offer sedation options where they are appropriate, and we talk them through with you before the appointment.
We take a diagnosis-first approach: our dentists examine your child and set out exactly what is needed before any work begins, so you only pay for treatment that is necessary.
The £195 consultation fee is redeemable against treatment. Payment options can be discussed with our reception team.
Leave your number and we will call you back. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Good habits formed early tend to last. Through children's dental exams and cleanings we help children get used to the dentist, learn to look after their teeth, and catch problems while they are small. Our clinical team is led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, a GDC-registered specialist periodontist (GDC No. 104071).
We provide fluoride treatments and dental hygiene visits for children and teenagers. Where a tooth is damaged or decayed, we repair it with tooth-coloured composite resin, and we use conservative bonding where that is enough to restore the tooth.
Some children need more specific help. We use a diode laser for tongue-tie division, and we offer nutrition advice for families who want to reduce their children's risk of decay.
Growth and alignment matter during childhood. We monitor jaw growth and the way teeth are coming through, and where alignment treatment is appropriate we can use removable aligners rather than fixed braces.
Fluoride in the right amount protects teeth. We assess how much your child needs during their clinical assessment, based on their age, diet and decay history.
Care ranges from routine check-ups and cleaning to fillings and treating injuries to the teeth. Where treatment is needed, it is done under local anaesthetic.
Fees depend on the work required. You receive a clear breakdown of all charges at the consultation, before anything is booked.
We see children at every stage of development, from a first check-up to more complex needs. Our dentists set out the right plan at the first visit.
We work at the child's pace. Appointments are unhurried, we explain each step in words the child can follow, and we give you honest options without pressure so you can decide what is right for your family.
A consultation lets us confirm whether a treatment is suitable and how many visits it will take. We also take time to hear what matters most to you about your child's care.
Suitability and timelines are decided at a clinical examination, where our dentists assess each child individually and give you a clear plan. You can arrange your assessment with the clinical team at our Primrose Hill practice, or call 020 7589 7792.
We look after children from infancy through adolescence, from routine check-ups to more involved treatment.
Prevention rests on regular check-ups and cleaning. Fluoride treatments strengthen developing enamel, and professional cleaning removes the plaque a child's brushing tends to miss. Our dentists assess each child and recommend only what is suitable for them.
If your child is anxious, we offer sedation dentistry alongside a calm, patient approach so that treatment can go ahead without distress.
Our services include children's dental exams and cleanings, dental hygiene for teenagers, and early cavity prevention. We confirm suitability and timing at the first consultation. Book your assessment.
There are several children's dental treatments, and which option fits depends on what your child needs. The list below covers the main ones.
Regular children's dental exams and cleanings are the foundation. These visits let us spot problems early and apply fluoride to protect developing teeth, which reduces the need for larger treatment later.
When decay does occur, we place children's fillings to restore the tooth. For children whose teeth or jaws are developing out of line, we offer early orthodontic treatment.
For children who find visits daunting, we provide care for anxious children, including sedation where it is appropriate.
Our dentists assess your child before recommending any of these.
We examine your child's teeth, gums and bite and talk through what we find. The first visit is also about letting your child get comfortable with the room and the team.
We clean the teeth and give you practical guidance on brushing and diet. Where alignment needs attention, we offer Invisalign First for growing smiles.
We repair any decay or damage. If your child is particularly anxious, we can use nitrous oxide sedation for children to help them stay relaxed.
Regular check-ups let us watch growth and catch new problems early. We tell you plainly how many visits are needed and what could complicate the plan.
Our children's services run from early cavity prevention to more complex dental procedures. We offer fluoride treatments to protect developing teeth and professional cleanings to keep gums healthy. Where a child's teeth are developing out of line, our specialist orthodontist, Dr Kia Papagalani (GDC No. 228487), can advise on orthodontics.
Most of the work of keeping a child's teeth healthy happens at home between visits. Our children's dental aftercare guide covers brushing, diet and what to do after specific treatments.
We confirm suitability and timing for every treatment at a consultation. The guides below explain each service in more detail.
Our hygienists and dentists provide dental hygiene for children and teens to build habits that last.
We offer fluoride treatments and fissure sealants to protect teeth from decay.
For early cavities in baby teeth, we can use silver diamine fluoride.
Our dentists, with the practice led by Dr Ope Sodeinde, take the time your child needs at every visit. Call 020 7589 7792 or book online.
