Pedodontics: Nurturing Healthy Smiles for Little Ones

When Should Infants Start Seeing a Pedodontist?

Infants should have their first dental examination around six months after the emergence of their first milk tooth. Regular visits should follow from this age onward to ensure proactive oral health management.

How Often Should Children Visit the Dentist?

Routine dental visits for children are essential as a preventive measure. It is recommended to schedule visits at regular intervals with a six-month gap between appointments. In cases where a child is more prone to dental issues, visits may be advised every three months. A proactive approach to dental care helps address potential issues before they escalate.

Easing Fears at Fly & Smile:

At Fly & Smile, our pediatric dentists specialize in creating a comfortable environment for children. Understanding that many children fear dental visits, our initial examinations focus on interaction and building trust. In extreme cases, our dentists engage with children through playful activities or humor, ensuring a positive experience during treatment.

Preventive Treatments Parents Should Consider:

Dental Vaccines (Fissure Sealants):

Dental vaccines or fissure sealants offer numerous benefits for children by preventing cavities, a common dental issue. A protective fluid filler is applied to cover the creases and folds of molars, providing resistance to decay and protecting children’s teeth.

Fluoride Application:

Fluoride application involves thickening enamel using fluorine, enhancing the resistance of teeth against decay. This painless procedure applies fluorine to the teeth using a special spoon. With controlled doses, the treatment is safe, free from side effects, and contributes to overall dental health.
Taking a preventive approach to pediatric dental care ensures the well-being of children’s smiles, fostering a positive attitude towards oral health from an early age.
