What our parents say:
“Great! All the staff were great with my 2 year old for her first trip to the dentist.”
“Fantastic service very friendly and professional. SpaDental in Saltash has always been very professional and a friendly place to go my three children always get treated very well thank you so much!”
“Highly recommend. The dentist was so respectful and understanding of my daughters needs.”
“Amazing. My partner came with the children. 5 stars!”
“Happy, helpful, cheery visit. We travelled from Launceston to Saltash SpaDental and it was worth every mile. All the staff were welcoming and helpful. Put my 7 year old granddaughter at ease as it was her first dental visit although she was a good girl too! We will definitely be comfortable and confident on our next visit.”
SpaDental practices regularly hold Children’s Days to support children’s access to oral health care. Practices with an NHS contract offer appointments for children funded by the NHS. Our private-only practices offer affordable examinations and dental care plans for children. You can use our contact form to find out more information.

We encourage you to bring your children for check-ups, as growing teeth need regular attention to ensure they stay healthy and problem-free. Baby teeth start to appear when your child is around six months old, so this is the ideal time to bring them for their first visit.
To help make things easier, many of our practices hold special Children’s Days during the school holidays. This means you can bring your children to see us for a check-up without worrying about them missing any lessons!
The practical guide to children’s teeth published by the BSPD is an excellent resource to help you care for your children’s teeth as they develop.
Please note:
- Some SpaDental practices only offer private care. Parents who are ‘pay as you go’ or SpaDental Plan patients are encouraged to ask about arrangements for children’s appointments.
- Practices providing NHS care register children when space is available, and maintain waiting lists. Although the practices prefer not to add children to a waiting list, sometimes it is unavoidable.
