Services - Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry focuses on the dental care and treatment of children from infancy through adolescence. Pediatric dentists are specifically trained to address the unique oral health needs of children, including baby teeth, dental development, and early prevention of oral health issues. Regular visits to a pediatric dentist help monitor the development of the child's teeth and gums, provide guidance on habits like thumb-sucking, and ensure that any problems are caught early. Common pediatric dental treatments include fluoride treatments, dental sealants to prevent cavities, space maintainers (if a baby tooth is lost early), and teaching good oral hygiene habits. Pediatric dentists also handle more advanced treatments like fillings, root canals, and even orthodontic evaluations. They are skilled in making dental visits a positive experience for children, using child-friendly language and techniques to reduce anxiety.
