Dental care for children in Hanoi

Last updated 6 November 2026 · By the Dentist in Hanoi editorial team · General information, not medical advice

Choosing a dentist for your child

• Language: a child who doesn't understand the dentist gets anxious faster. Ask who will actually treat your child and whether they speak your child's language.
• Approach: ask how they handle a nervous child, whether the first visit can be just a look and a ride in the chair, and whether parents can stay.
• Distance: short, regular visits are easier when the clinic is close to home or school.
• Records: ask for X-rays and notes if you move countries often.

Common treatments for children

• check-up and cleaning;
• fluoride varnish and fissure sealants on back teeth to prevent decay;
• fillings in baby teeth (baby teeth matter: they keep space for adult teeth);
• an orthodontic check, often around age seven.
