A Kid's Dentist Mosman Families Can Rely On
Choosing a Paediatric dentist is about more than teeth. Your child needs someone patient, who explains things simply and never rushes them.
At Advanced Dental Care Mosman, Dr Priya Shanmugalingam and her team provide children’s dentistry for babies, toddlers, school-aged children and teenagers. Our focus is prevention, so small problems are found early and treated gently.
We want every child to feel safe in the chair and to leave proud of their smile. Good early visits build habits that last into adulthood.
Meet Your Mosman Children's Dentist - Dr Priya Shanmugalingam
Dr Priya Shanmugalingam brings more than 20 years of clinical experience to children’s dentistry at Advanced Dental Care Mosman. Families across the Lower North Shore bring their children to her for calm, unhurried appointments.
She uses the Tell-Show-Do method with every child. Each instrument is named, shown and explained in simple words before it is used, which helps a nervous child feel in control.
Prevention sits at the centre of her paediatric dentistry care. Dr Priya applies fissure sealants and fluoride treatments, and she watches how each child’s teeth and jaw develop so that any concerns are picked up early. Her aim is a kids dentist visit your child looks forward to.
Children's Dentistry Services for Every Age
From the first check-up to sports mouthguards, our kids dentist looks after your child at each stage of growth.
Preventive Dental Care for Children
Fissure sealants and fluoride treatments help protect new teeth from decay. We also make custom mouthguards for children who play sport around Mosman.
Children's Dental Check-Ups and Cleans
Regular check-ups let us track how your child’s teeth and jaw are growing. A gentle clean removes plaque and keeps gums healthy.
Tooth-Coloured Fillings for Kids
If your child has a cavity, we repair it with BPA-free white resin that blends in with the tooth. We work slowly and explain each step so your child stays calm.
Emergency Dental Care for Children
Toothaches, chipped teeth and knocked-out teeth need quick attention. Call us and we will arrange priority care for your child.

What Mosman Families Say About Us
Our Gentle Approach to Paediatric Dentistry
A frightening first visit can leave a child anxious about the dentist for years. Our approach to paediatric dentistry is built on patience, honesty and going at your child’s pace.
We explain every step in words children understand and invite them to ask questions. When children know what is happening, they become active partners in looking after their own teeth.
Our goal is for your child to leave with a sticker, a smile and a sense of pride.
What to Expect at Your Child's Dental Visit
Every visit follows four simple steps, so you and your child know what is coming.
1
A Warm Welcome
We greet your child by name and give them time to look around. A quick chat about school or hobbies helps them relax.
2
Gentle Examination
We check your child’s teeth, gums, bite and jaw development, and look for early signs of decay. If your child needs a break, we stop.
3
Clean and Protection
A gentle scale and polish removes plaque. Where it will help, we talk to you about fissure sealants to protect the permanent molars.
4
Parent Consultation
You receive a clear summary of your child’s oral health, with practical tips on brushing and diet at home.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child first see a children's dentist?
Bring your child in once their first teeth appear, usually around their first birthday. An early visit is short and gentle, and it helps your child get used to the clinic.
How often should children have a dental check-up?
Most children benefit from a check-up every six months. We will let you know if your child needs to come in more or less often.
Is my child eligible for bulk-billed dental care under the CDBS?
Children aged 0 to 17 may be eligible for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule if your family receives Family Tax Benefit Part A or another relevant Australian Government payment. We can check your child’s eligibility and remaining balance using your Medicare card.
What does paediatric dentistry cover?
Paediatric dentistry is dental care for babies, children and teenagers. It includes check-ups, cleans, preventive treatments such as fissure sealants and fluoride, fillings and care for dental injuries.
How can I prevent cavities in my child's teeth?
Brush twice a day with an age-appropriate fluoride toothpaste, keep sugary snacks and drinks to a minimum, and come in for regular check-ups. Fissure sealants add extra protection for the back teeth.
My child is nervous about the dentist. How do you help?
We go at your child’s pace and use the Tell-Show-Do method, so nothing happens without being explained first. Your child can take a break at any time, and you are welcome to stay with them.
What should I do if my child has a dental emergency?
Call our kids dentist straight away on (02)99693982 if your child has a knocked-out tooth, a severe toothache or a dental injury. We arrange priority care for children in pain.
