Description

Child dentistry, also known as pediatric dentistry, focuses on the oral health of children from infancy through adolescence. It encompasses preventive care, such as regular check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants, to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Pediatric dentists are trained to address unique dental needs of children, including early assessment of tooth development and orthodontic concerns. They also educate both children and parents on proper oral hygiene practices and diet to prevent cavities and gum disease. Early intervention can prevent dental issues and promote lifelong oral health habits, ensuring children grow up with healthy smiles.
