OVERVIEW
Leicester has some of the highest tooth decay rates in children in the country, making early dental care more important than ever for local families.
At The Windsor Dental Practice, we provide gentle, patient dental care for children from their very first visit, helping them build a positive relationship with their dental health from an early age.
We welcome children from as young as six months old, in a calm and friendly environment where every child feels safe and comfortable.
Many children in Leicester are affected by tooth decay before they even start school. Without early professional care, small problems can quickly develop into painful and costly treatment.
Early visits to a children's dentist in Leicester can prevent most of these issues before they become serious.
Children's dentistry focuses on preventing dental problems before they develop. It covers regular check-ups, fluoride varnish, fissure sealants, and oral hygiene advice tailored to your child's age and needs.
Baby teeth are important for speech, chewing, and holding space for permanent teeth. Caring for them early protects your child's long-term dental health.
We recommend bringing your child to our Leicester practice from around six months of age. Even without any teeth, early visits help your child get used to the environment, the sounds, and the friendly faces they will see at every future appointment.
The first visit is about familiarisation, not treatment. There is no pressure on your child to open their mouth or sit in the chair until they feel completely comfortable and ready.
At The Windsor Dental Practice, all children's dental treatments are focused on prevention, education, and building a positive experience from the very first visit.
| Children's Dental Treatments | |
|---|---|
| Dental Check-ups | Regular examinations to monitor teeth and gum development, detect early decay, and ensure your child's teeth are growing correctly. |
| Fluoride Varnish | A protective coating applied to tooth surfaces to strengthen enamel and significantly reduce the risk of tooth decay in children. |
| Fissure Sealants | A tooth-coloured protective layer applied to the grooves of back teeth, sealing out bacteria and food particles where decay most commonly starts. |
| Oral Hygiene Advice | Practical brushing and diet guidance given to both children and parents to support an effective home care routine. |
| Emergency Dental Care for Kids | Fast, gentle treatment available for children experiencing tooth pain, chipped teeth, or dental injuries. |
Every child's dental appointment at our Leicester practice is calm, unhurried, and tailored to your child's comfort level.
At The Windsor Dental Practice, we understand that some children feel anxious about visiting the dentist. Our team is experienced in working with nervous young patients, always letting the child set the pace.
We will never proceed with any examination unless your child feels ready and comfortable. Building trust comes first.

QUESTIONS ABOUT
We recommend bringing your child from around six months of age or when their first tooth appears. Early visits help your child get comfortable with the dental environment before any treatment is needed.
Yes, baby teeth are essential for speech development, chewing, and holding space for permanent teeth. Decay in baby teeth can cause pain, infection, and affect the development of adult teeth underneath.
Yes, fluoride is safe and highly effective when used in the correct amounts. Fluoride varnish applied by a dentist and age-appropriate fluoride toothpaste are both recommended to protect children’s teeth from decay.
Fissure sealants are a thin protective coating applied to the grooves of back teeth where decay most commonly starts. They are pain-free, quick to apply, and significantly reduce the risk of cavities in children.
Most children should attend a dental check-up every six months. Your dentist may recommend more frequent visits if your child is at higher risk of tooth decay.
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, limit sugary foods and drinks to mealtimes, and attend regular dental check-ups. Supervised brushing is recommended until your child is around seven years old.
Avoid using negative words like injections or pain before the appointment. Bring your child to your own appointments first so they can observe, and let our friendly team build trust at their own pace.
We believe in providing high quality and ethical dentistry to our patients, whilst providing bespoke treatments to cater for all their needs.
