PEDODONTICS

First visit to the dentist

Our dental doctors work closely with their parents to create a positive relationship for their child’s surgery and dental care, and to make male patients feel comfortable, safe and relaxed.

The first visit of the child to the dentist should have been planned as early as one year of age, when the first baby teeth arrive.

With this early approach, potential problems in the oral health of the child can be applied in time, and parents can be informed of the importance of preventative measures such as proper tooth brushing, toothpaste and toothbrush selection.
Keep in mind that the health of the baby’s teeth is extremely important, and regular dentist visits can identify orthodontic anomalies.

Baby teeth

Baby teeth start errupting around the age of six months, and by the third year, all 20 baby teeth should be present.

It is very important to preserve baby teeth, because they primarily keep the tooth permanent and, when breaking a permanent tooth, direct its growth.

Therefore, in case of premature loss of baby teeth there may be a displacement of permanat teeth as such different orthodontic anomalities may occur.

Baby teeth are precursors to permanent ones, but it does not make them less important. Healthy milk teeth conserve space for their successor and promote proper jaw development.

For children who have fear we have nitrous oxide or happy gas
