Oral care habits acquired during childhood and the health of primary (milk) teeth form the foundation of the dental structure an individual will have for a lifetime. Our Pedodontics (Pediatric Dentistry) specialists manage treatment processes for the 0-13 age group with special psychological approaches, acting like a "playmate" to prevent the formation of dental phobia. It is recommended that the first dentist visit be made after the first primary tooth erupts (approximately 6 months - 1 year).
Since primary teeth guide the permanent teeth that will come from underneath (acting as space maintainers), it is crucial that they are not lost early and are protected from decay. With preventive treatments applied in our clinic, such as fissure sealants (dental polish) and fluoride varnish, tooth enamel is strengthened, and cavity formation is prevented.
For young children who have extreme fear, cannot cooperate, or require numerous dental treatments, procedures can be completed comfortably in a single session under general anesthesia or sedation. This ensures that the child regains oral health without experiencing any trauma.
