Treatment of children’s teeth

The habit of hygiene and dental health is formed in children from an early age. By the age of 2.5, the baby has 20 milk teeth, which means that you need to accustom him to daily (evening and morning) cleaning, to regular visits to the dentist. Treatment of a child’s teeth can only be entrusted to trusted specialists. The best pediatric dentists in Dnipro work in Amel Dental Clinic pediatric dentistry.

Dental treatment in children: is it necessary to treat milk teeth?

It is necessary to maintain the health of temporary teeth constantly, because the health of future permanent teeth and the correct bite depend on it. A neglected baby tooth infection can damage molars, which are just beginning to form. If left untreated, caries will cause a lot of complications and lead to the loss / extraction of a baby tooth. On the one hand, it’s not scary, because the tooth is still temporary. On the other hand, the resulting void leads to displacement of the entire dentition, uneven load on the teeth and deformation of the bite. And bite correction, as you know, is not the easiest procedure.

In addition, the child needs temporary teeth to chew food. If molars or premolars collapse, it is no longer possible to grind the food thoroughly. As a result, the digestive system suffers.

Even if, in your opinion, the baby has no problems with teeth, make it a rule to regularly take your child to the dentist for examination.

Amel Dental Clinic – children’s dentistry in Dnepropetrovsk, where you can be examined and get professional advice on children’s oral hygiene, prevention of dental diseases.

What dental diseases in children does Amel Dental Clinic treat?

Children’s dental diseases are the same as in adults:

• caries – an infection that leads to the destruction of dental tissue;
• pulpitis – inflammation of the inside of the tooth, which occurs in the absence or ineffective treatment of caries;
• periodontitis is an even more serious complication of carious infection; it develops when the infection affects the entire tooth, pulp and penetrates into the root tissues.

In children, all these diseases develop very quickly, since the child’s teeth have a softened structure. Many diseases, such as caries or chronic periodontitis, have practically no external signs. Therefore, regardless of the baby’s health, at least once every six months, you need to make an appointment with a pediatric dentist at Amel Dental Clinic for a preventive examination in order to detect the development of the disease in time.
