Pediatric Dentist

Pediatric dentistry is a branch of science that focuses on providing dental care to infants, children, and adolescents from birth through adolescence. It focuses on preventive and restorative care, helping children develop healthy habits and maintain good oral hygiene. Pediatric dentists are trained to recognize and treat dental issues that may affect children’s oral health, such as cavities and gum disease. They also guide nutrition, diet, and home care and offer preventive treatments such as fluoride treatments and sealants. Pediatric dentists also provide a wide range of other services, such as fillings, crowns, and root canal therapy. Additionally, they may be able to offer sedation to help calm nervous children and provide other services, such as orthodontics, to help improve their smiles.
