Toddlers Clinics
Attendances at these clinics are normally arranged by appointment,
usually at six-monthly intervals, but more frequently in certain
instances. Early detection of minor defects with referral when
necessary for specialist opinion is one of the functions of this type
of clinic. For example, regular attendance frequently results in
the early detection of dental caries. If the parents are willing to
accept the necessary treatment, routine dental inspection throughout
life is more likely to be achieved when parents take advantage of the
treatment offered in these early years of the child's life.

The following table gives details of attendances at the individual clinics:-
