Pediatric Dentistry

Children’s teeth are prone to changes often. Exfoliating and erupting teeth, thumb -sucking habits and accident prone nature of children cause many dental problems which need to be treated early.

It is of prime importance that your child sees a dentist by age one to establish a long-term dental hygiene and professional dental cleaning plan. Fixing cavities in children’s teeth is often done differently than in permanent teeth and must take into account subsequent tooth loss and different size and shape of the teeth. Dental sealants are used to protect teeth from decay and are appropriate as soon as a tooth erupts.

Our pedodontist is well trained in the field of paediatric dentistry, child psychology, behaviour management and conscious sedation.
