What’s Included in the Healthy Smile Appointment?
🦷 Fluoride Varnish Application
Fluoride varnish is one of the most effective preventive treatments available for children.
Applied directly to the teeth, it helps strengthen enamel and makes teeth more resistant to decay.
The treatment is:
✔ Quick and comfortable
✔ Safe and effective
✔ Recommended for children at increased risk of tooth decay
✔ Proven to help reduce cavities
Regular fluoride applications can provide valuable protection during the years when children’s teeth are still developing.
🦷 Fissure Sealant Assessment
The grooves and pits on the chewing surfaces of back teeth can be difficult to clean thoroughly, making them more vulnerable to decay.
During the appointment, Ozgen will assess whether your child’s teeth would benefit from fissure sealants.
If suitable, fissure sealants may be recommended and applied to help protect these vulnerable areas.
Benefits of fissure sealants include:
✔ Protection against tooth decay in back teeth
✔ Easier cleaning of chewing surfaces
✔ Long-lasting preventive protection
✔ Reduced risk of future fillings and dental treatment
🦷 Oral Health Education
Developing good oral hygiene habits from an early age can make a significant difference to your child’s long-term oral health.
During the appointment, children will receive guidance tailored to their age and stage of development, helping them understand how to look after their teeth in a fun and positive way.
Topics may include:
- Correct toothbrushing techniques
- How much toothpaste to use
- Healthy food and drink choices
- Preventing tooth decay
- Looking after new adult teeth
- The importance of regular dental visits

Why Prevention Matters
Tooth decay is one of the most common childhood health conditions, yet it is largely preventable.
Many children experience dental problems that could be avoided through early education, regular preventive care, and good oral hygiene habits.
Our Healthy Smile Programme focuses on helping children:
✔ Prevent tooth decay before it starts
✔ Build confidence in caring for their teeth
✔ Learn healthy habits early in life
✔ Protect newly developing adult teeth
✔ Reduce the likelihood of future dental treatment
By investing in prevention today, we can help children enjoy healthier smiles for years to come.
Why Choose a Healthy Smile Appointment?
Our hygienist-led appointments are designed to be friendly, gentle and child-focused.
Children often feel more relaxed in a preventive setting where the emphasis is on learning and building positive experiences rather than treating problems.
These appointments are ideal for:
- Children aged 3 years and over
- Children who are nervous about dental visits
- Children who would benefit from additional preventive care
- Families looking to support good oral health habits at home
- Children with newly erupted adult teeth

Preventative dentistry is a modern way of reducing the amount of dental treatment to maintain a healthy mouth- helping you to keep your teeth. The two major causes of tooth loss are decay and gum disease.
Pit and Fissure Sealants
Jacme Oral Care offer Pit and Fissure Sealants – which are a safe and painless way of protecting Children’s teeth from decay.
A protective sealant coating is applied to the biting surfaces of the back teeth – this forms a hard shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the tiny grooves in the teeth and causing decay.
Sealants are often applied as soon as permanent teeth start to come through – usually between the ages of 6 and 7 years old. Sealants last for many years.
Fluoride Varnish
Jacme Oral Care also offer Fluoride Varnish treatment – a quick, safe and effective way to help protect teeth from decay.
Fluoride varnish is painted directly onto the teeth using a small brush. The varnish contains a high concentration of fluoride which helps strengthen tooth enamel and makes teeth more resistant to cavities.
Fluoride varnish can be applied to both primary (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. In line with current NHS guidance, children should be offered fluoride varnish applications from the age of 3 years at least twice yearly. Younger children and adults who are at a higher risk of tooth decay may also be advised to have fluoride varnish more regularly depending on their individual oral health needs.
The treatment is fast, painless and can be carried out during a routine dental appointment.
At Jacme Oral Care – we are committed to preventative dentistry and helping our patients enjoy healthy smiles for life.
General Preventative Dentistry
At Jacme Oral Care – our dental and hygienist treatments work together to help prevent patients needing treatment – so avoiding extractions and fillings.
Our qualified dentists will assess your teeth and gums and discuss any treatment that is required. The dentist or hygienist will thoroughly scale and polish your teeth. Your dentist will then show you the best methods for brushing and flossing your teeth and advise you on the best oral products.
Sometimes our dentists may recommend a treatment to reinforce a tooth -perhaps a new filling or crown.
At Jacme Oral Care – we care about our clients and place their comfort and satisfaction above everything else. If you would like more details on our preventative treatments – please get in touch.
