Paediatric dentistry (children's dentistry) deals with the baby teeth and permanent teeth of children aged 0–13. Measures to protect these teeth and treatment services fall within the specialist field of paediatric dentistry.
Problems caused by tooth decay, trauma, heredity or other factors are diagnosed and treated by the specialists of this unit. Not only children's oral and dental health but also the development of the face area and jaw are covered by the follow-up and treatment of the paediatric dentistry unit.
Children's dental treatments should be carried out by specialist dentists in this field. This is also very important so that they do not develop prejudice against dentists or a fear of the dentist. Professional paediatric dentists know how to communicate with little ones and give them confidence.
This in turn allows the necessary diagnosis and treatment procedures to be carried out easily.
The paediatric dentists at Dentaloji have strong communication skills with children and turn dental treatment into a fun process for them. Our dentists, who know very well how to approach children, have rich knowledge of the dental anatomy of children in their developmental period. By giving children an effective and enjoyable treatment experience, they also earn the satisfaction of parents.
What Do Paediatric Dentists Do?
Paediatric dentists detect orthodontic and structural disorders. They identify problems that are present from birth or develop later and offer treatment solutions accordingly.
They also take the necessary measures to protect children at risk of certain tooth or gum problems. They prepare preventive programmes accordingly and support their implementation.
They also give detailed information about oral and dental care to both the child and the parents, and help to arrange eating habits appropriately.
