Many parents are unaware that their kid’s dental health has permanent effects on their general health. The branch of dentistry that deals with the oral and dental care of children from birth to adolescence is known as Kid’s Dentistry or Pediatric Dentistry.
The Canadian Dental Association suggests that your child’s first visit to a dentist should be within six months after the first baby tooth erupts into the mouth. The goal is to prevent dental problems at the earliest possible and maintain good dental health.
Dental Sealants: A thin tooth-coloured material, called dental sealants or pit and fissure sealants is applied over the young permanent teeth as soon as they erupt, to prevent cavities. The dental sealants are also applied to teeth that have deep grooves to avoid trapping food particles and prevent tooth decay.
Baby Teeth Cleaning: The first baby teeth need to be cleaned with a soft washcloth or gauze after every feed. As the child grows, regular brushing twice daily is recommended with a child’s toothbrush using a fluoridated toothpaste.
Fluoride Treatment: Fluoride is applied over the surfaces of the teeth, in the form of a varnish or a gel. The fluoride application re-mineralizes the affected enamel and prevents tooth decay.
Mouth Guards: To prevent chipped, broken or cracked teeth and prevent injury to the lips, mouth, and jaws during contact sports, protective guards are placed over the teeth.
Dental fillings: Small cavities are treated with dental fillings. Dental fillings can prevent a small cavity from growing into a larger problem and can prevent toothache.
Dental extractions: Baby teeth that are over-retained teeth or teeth that cannot be restored or repaired can be removed in order to prevent future bite problems and misalignment of the teeth such as crowded teeth or gaps in between the teeth.
Sleep Apnoea Checkups & Correction: Behavioral, adaptive and learning problems associated with sleep disorders can be corrected if detected at an early stage. Untreated sleep apnoea may lead to poor health and cardiac disorders in the future.
Developmental Issues Check-ups: Regular check-ups by your dentist can identify developmental issues or developmental defects and dental problems. Early treatments enable the child to lead a normal life.
Regular dental check-ups for children enable them to lead a healthy life. Pain-free and healthy smiles boost your child’s confidence and improve their performance at school. By preventing cavities, your child has a chance at improved dental health and overall health; and experience lesser oral infections and fewer missed days at school.
Timely interventions by your child’s dentist can help prevent bite problems, skeletal or postural problems and prevent the need for complex treatments later.
Regular dental exams for children at an early age help establish a friendly relationship with the child’s dental and oral care providers and go a long way in reducing the fear of a dentist’s appointment.
We recommend a routine dental check-up for your child, once every six months and once in every 3 to 4 months, in case there are oral or dental problems that require monitoring.
