Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric dentistry is the branch of dental science that focuses on the oral health of children from infancy through the teenage years. It involves prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of dental issues while also guiding proper dental habits from an early age.

Common Treatments Offered:

  • Fluoride treatments and dental sealants to prevent cavities
  • Tooth-colored fillings for decayed teeth
  • Painless extractions (if needed)
  • Space maintainers for premature tooth loss
  • Habit correction appliances (for thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, etc.)
  • Regular check-ups and cleanings
  • Orthodontic assessment and referrals

Common Causes of Pediatric Dental Issues:

  • Poor oral hygiene habits
  • Frequent consumption of sugary snacks or drinks
  • Prolonged bottle-feeding or pacifier use
  • Genetic factors
  • Lack of routine dental check-ups

Symptoms to Watch For:

  • Toothache or sensitivity
  • Swelling in gums or jaw
  • White or brown spots on teeth (early signs of decay)
  • Bad breath that doesn’t go away
  • Difficulty chewing or speaking
  • Irregular tooth eruption or alignment

Prevention Tips:

  • Start brushing as soon as the first tooth appears
  • Use age-appropriate toothpaste and soft brushes
  • Encourage a balanced, low-sugar diet
  • Avoid bottle feeding at bedtime
  • Schedule your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday
  • Maintain regular 6-month dental check-ups
