Pediatric dentistry is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on the oral health of infants, children, and teenagers. It involves preventive and therapeutic dental care to ensure proper growth and development of teeth and gums. Pediatric dentists are trained to handle childrenβs unique dental needs, making treatments comfortable and stress-free.
A comprehensive dental check-up, including X-rays and oral assessments, helps evaluate the childβs teeth and jaw development. Preventive care such as fluoride treatments and sealants is recommended to protect against cavities.
If treatment is needed, the child is kept comfortable with gentle techniques or sedation. Procedures may include cavity fillings, orthodontic care, or gum disease management, all performed in a child-friendly environment.
Post-treatment care includes oral hygiene tips, dietary guidance, and follow-up recommendations. Regular check-ups ensure continued oral health and a confident smile for life.
