A Nurturing & Positive Dental Experience in Christchurch
DayOne reflects a core paediatric dentistry belief: every child should have a dental home by age one, or soon after their first tooth appears, for a gentle start to lifelong oral health.
Welcome to DayOne
Why the Name DayOne Matters
In paediatric dentistry, we believe every child should have a dental home by the age of one, or soon after the eruption of their first tooth. That idea is at the heart of DayOne.
We also believe that when a child sees a paediatric dentist as their first dentist from day one, they receive more personalised preventive care, guidance for healthy habits, and treatment that is tailored to their stage of development.
Dr. Heather has built DayOne around calm, positive early visits so children feel safe and parents feel confident. When treatment is needed, options including nitrous oxide sedation or general anaesthetic can also be discussed.
