Free kids check-up day

Balyang Dental is excited to invite local families to a special community event – a Free Dental Check-Up Day for children aged 2 to 18 years on Sunday, September 295.

Timed perfectly for the school holidays, this initiative is designed to promote good oral health in young people and to help families build positive attitudes toward dental care, all in a fun and welcoming environment.

Why dental check-ups matter for kids

Healthy smiles begin in childhood. Regular dental visits are essential to ensure that teeth and gums develop properly. They also allow dentists to identify and treat issues such as early decay, gum concerns, or bite alignment problems before they become more serious.

These visits also build comfort and familiarity. Positive early dental experiences reduce anxiety and create lifelong confidence in seeking care. At Balyang Dental, we believe that investing in children’s oral health now sets the foundation for a lifetime of strong, confident smiles.

More than a check-up

This free event is about more than just a quick look at teeth. Families can also receive orthodontic advice, giving parents peace of mind about whether their child may need braces or other treatments in the future.

The day will feature:

 Free professional dental check-ups for kids aged 2–18

 Orthodontic advice from experienced dental professionals

 Fun kids’ activities to make the experience enjoyable

 Exciting giveaways to take home

By blending professional care with play, Balyang Dental hopes to show children that visiting the dentist can be both fun and rewarding.

Supporting families, removing barriers

The cost of dental visits can sometimes prevent families from accessing regular care. By offering this free event, Balyang Dental is helping remove financial barriers, making it easier for parents to get advice and care for their children. Whether it’s your child’s very first dental visit or a routine check, this event is a chance to gain valuable insights into their oral health without added stress.

Spots are limited and available by appointment only. Don’t miss this chance to take a proactive step toward your child’s oral health. Join us at Balyang Dental on September 29 for a day dedicated to fun, family, and

healthy smiles. With limited appointments available, we encourage families to book early to secure their place.

Date: Sunday, September 29 (during school holidays)

Venue: Balyang Dental, 122 West Fyans St, Newtown

Who’s it for?: Children aged 2 to 18 years, accompanied by their families
