Pedodontics or infant dentistry deals with dental diseases encountered in the case of children with deciduous (milk teeth) or mixed teeth (permanent teeth mixed with milk teeth).
Pedodontics features different adult dentistry aspects both from a local perspective – children’s teeth are different from adult teeth – and a general perspective – the presence of a developing organism.
Psychologically, the child will manifest fear of dental interventions but a pleasant atmosphere in the cabinet and the physician´s tact and the ability to exploit the age-specific curiosity and the child´s desire for knowledge can radically change those feelings. This way, children get to unreservedly pass the threshold of our clinic.
Modern dentistry gives great importance to preserving the milk teeth on the arcade until the age when they fall down alone. They are designed to maintain the necessary space for permanent teeth. Early extraction of milk teeth leads to the loss of space and the crowding of permanent teeth.
Therefore, the treatment of caries in the case of milk teeth is very important because they have to remain on the arch for a while so as to avoid more elaborate orthodontic treatments later on. You child´s state of comfort and confidence is also very important because he will be able to boast the most beautiful and healthy teeth!
