Childrens Dentistry

At Lyons Dental, we love treating families, especially kids. We have a child-friendly environment & aim to make each appointment an enjoyable one.

We are a premium provider of children’s dentistry in Sydney. We want a visit to our clinic to be the first of many for your child. We want to be there to see your children and their teeth grow, promoting excellent oral health habits for your kids.

All of the dentists at Lyons Dental have children themselves & have a wealth of experience in treating children.

Why is it important to bring your child to the dentist?

Baby teeth are critical for eating, speech development, holding the space for the adult teeth & proper development of the face & jaw. (As well as for little smiles!)

Preventative dental care is important to us, & research shows that children with poor oral health have a high risk of growing into adults with poor oral health. That’s why we like to see kids as early as possible to check for any problems & to try to establish healthy oral habits from an early age. We also want all children to grow up loving the dentist!

Seeing children regularly also helps us to detect orthodontic problems early & allows us to assess whether early intervention orthodontics are an option. At Lyons Dental we also understand the importance of proper nasal breathing & airway function for proper growth & development & are able to refer to an appropriate ear, nose & throat doctor if we feel that further investigation is required here.

Come in and see us!

We recommend regular 6 monthly check-up & clean appointments. Sometimes other treatment may be required such as fissure seals, fillings or extractions, and we can discuss all the options with you & provide a quote if necessary. Most of the time these can be carried out in the dental chair by one of our experienced dentists, however we also offer treatment using nitrous oxide (happy gas) which can help kids to relax & make treatment easier.

The happy, friendly staff at Lyons Dental aim to create a comfortable, relaxing and fun atmosphere for your children, putting your & their minds at ease.

We accept all health fund cards & process all health fund payments at each appointment, saving you the hassle of following up these payments yourselves.

We also are providers of the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Scheme which allows up to $1000 of treatment to eligible children. (Check with Medicare to see if your child qualifies for this scheme)
