What is Pediatric Dentistry?
Pediatric Dentistry, or children’s dentistry, is geared toward the oral health of the developing child during the critical period in the child’s life. We understand that all patients need high-quality service and a gentle touch. This is especially true of the children who depend on us for the health of their smile.
Children have special needs when it comes to oral care as they have growing jaw bones and rapidly changing dentitions. The relatively rapid eruption and loss of primary teeth which are then quickly replaced with full-sized adult teeth is a very important period which can decide much about how a child’s teeth will fare over the course of a lifetime. As a child’s deciduous teeth (or, “baby teeth”) fall out, and their adult teeth grow in, often there is insufficient space for all of the new teeth to emerge and align fully and correctly. This can damage the child’s adult teeth, make eating difficult, and can be hard on the child’s self-esteem if he or she is not confident in their smile.
This is why we provide a comprehensive list of children’s dental services including:
Preventative care: This includes cleaning, fluoride treatments, sealing treatments as well as education for both parents and children about proper dental care for childhood and for life.
Restorative dentistry: When children’s teeth become damaged from bacterial activity or injury, restoration dentistry is necessary. These services include:
Orthodontic services: Comprehensive care for all stages of the development of your children’s teeth must be planned for and seen to as they grow. We deliver early treatment in stage one where we treat common problems and foresee future risks. In stage two, the mixed dentition period, we deal with problems related to the rapid change from primary teeth to secondary teeth. And in stage three, we aid the teen in developing final dentition alignment, provide straightening treatments and continue to work to impart good oral hygiene habits for life.
