Pediatric Dentistry

People begin teething at 6 months of age and develop primary 'milk' teeth. At the age of 6-7, people begin to lose their milk teeth and permanent teeth begin to appear. Because milk teeth will eventually fall out, some parents tend to ignore taking their kids to the dentist.

However, these milk teeth form the basis of permanent tooth development. If proper care is not taken, life-long problems may arise. In recent years, caries cases in children have increased many times. Therefore, it is recommended that you start your child's dental care in the early stages.

Which Treatment Methods Are Offered by Pediatric Dentistry?

Some Treatment Methods Provided by Pediatric Dentistry:

  • Examination of infants and children.
  • Fluoride therapy.
  • Correction of crooked teeth.

  • Treatment of dental injuries.

METHODS OF TREATMENT OF TOOTHCARIES IN CHILDREN:

Tooth decay in children is a common problem. The common problem that parents often take their children to the dentist for is tooth decay. This is because children do not have proper brushing skills and cannot maintain oral hygiene. According to scientific studies, 42% of children between the ages of 2 and 11 have caries in their primary teeth, and 23 percent of children in this age group do not have their teeth treated. Parents should take their children for a dental examination at regular intervals in order to avoid decay problems and to have dental cavities treated, if there is dental caries, treatment should be started with a specialist dentist.

Fluoride Application

A common problem that parents often take their kids to the dentist for is caries. This is due to the lack of proper brushing skills in children. In order to avoid rot problems, parents should have their children treated with fluoride at regular intervals. Fluoride helps fight plaque and bacteria that can cause cavities and enamel loss. Fluoride also strengthens tooth structure and aids bone growth. Under this treatment, the dentist incorporates fluoride ions into the tooth structure, making them more prone to acid dissolution. This treatment is equally beneficial for both primary and permanent teeth.

Sealants

The main cause of decay is food and bacteria trapped in the pits and crevices of the teeth. We chew food from the back teeth, such as molars and premolars, which are never straight. They act as potential traps for bacteria and food, making it susceptible to decay. For this reason, certain pits and fissure sealants are placed as a preventive measure. Dental sealants come to the rescue later. Mastics are plastic coatings placed on the chewing surface of the permanent tooth. They protect the tooth from decay. Permanent back teeth, molars and premolars are vulnerable to decay due to cracks. It is important to instill the habit of maintaining good oral health at the initial stage. This is an investment that will pay dividends for life in the form of healthy teeth and a healthy lifestyle. Parents should take the initiative to teach their children the correct brushing technique, and it is very important for them to know the correct brushing method. Make brushing a fun-filled activity for your child, brushing with them and encouraging them to take preventive measures.

Toothpaste And Toothbrush

Apart from the treatment options mentioned above, make sure your kids brush their teeth twice a day. Brushing before going to sleep is extremely important because the food you eat during the day stays between your teeth and the bacteria in your mouth feed on that food during the night, causing decay. If possible, teach your child to floss because this is additional protection for your teeth.
