Preventing decay from hitting kids

GIVING their children the best care at a young age is a high priority for many parents and is inspiring a growth in the popularity of preventive dental plans.

Denplan has seen the number of children's plans it offers increase six-fold in the last year to over 50,000. As well as the oral health benefits of visiting the dentist, parents understand the psychological benefits of familiarising young children with the dentist at an early age and making it positive.
