Children’s dentistry or pediatric dentistry deals with the oral health care of children from birth till they become teenagers. Now a day many children suffer from tooth diseases from childbirth and tooth decaying is one of the most common issues among children. From the time the child starts having milk teeth it is important to have proper oral health care or else the child would have to suffer painful treatments, which they get the permanent teeth. The pediatricians always suggest that from the time the child starts having even a single tooth they should start with oral hygiene care and frequently visit the dentist. The pediatric dentist explains the most correct technique to brush and proper oral health care techniques.
The most important reason why pediatric dentistry is important is that the children are at the age where they cannot tolerate mild discomfort and because of any health issue they tend to get irritated and moody. If there is any discomfort in the mouth they stop eating and drinking which eventually affects their health.
Proper oral hygiene from early childhood helps the teeth grow stronger and gums become healthy. One of the biggest enemies of a child’s tooth is sugar. The sugar intake of a child must be kept under strict check, which can prevent tooth decay and bacteria in the tooth. A balanced diet of fresh fruits and vegetables must be followed which gives fewer chances of tooth decay.
The regular dentist can also look after the oral health care of a child but it is always better and advisable to take a child to a pediatric dentist as they have special training in interacting with the children and they sometimes have a specially designed clinic where children feel comfortable as well. A pediatric dentist can demonstrate how important it is to take care of oral hygiene and they can show techniques for brushing that the children can actually enjoy. As children love to mimic their parents, they must always demonstrate healthy habits which the children can copy.
