Expert Pedodontic Care for Kids

Why Chiderens Dentistry important?

Children begin teething as early as 6 months, developing a set of primary or “milk” teeth that play a crucial role in the development of their permanent teeth. Around ages 6-7, milk teeth begin to fall out, making way for adult teeth. While temporary, milk teeth are essential for proper chewing, speech development, and acting as placeholders for the permanent teeth.

Some parents might overlook early dental care, thinking that these teeth will eventually fall out. However, neglecting to care for milk teeth can lead to lasting oral health issues. In recent years, the incidence of tooth decay in children has significantly increased. That’s why it’s crucial to establish good oral hygiene routines early and ensure regular visits to a pediatric dentist. This not only helps in preventing cavities but also sets the foundation for lifelong dental health.

We care for the dental problems occur at a younger age such as:

This occurs when teeth are misaligned, leading to difficulties with chewing, speaking, and overall jaw function. An improper bite can cause discomfort and long-term dental problems if not addressed early.

Involuntary clenching or grinding of teeth, often during sleep, can lead to tooth wear, jaw pain, and headaches. Identifying and managing this habit early is crucial for preventing damage.

This refers to crooked, crowded, or unevenly spaced teeth, affecting both appearance and functionality. Proper alignment is essential for effective chewing and maintaining oral health.

Preserving Your Child’s Dental Health for a Lifetime

Gentle Root Canal Treatment for Milk Teeth

Think your child is too young for a root canal? Think again! There’s no age limit for this vital procedure. If your child’s primary teeth have been injured or decay has reached deep into the roots, root canal treatment might be necessary to save the tooth. This treatment removes infection from the pulp—the sensitive nerve tissue inside the tooth. By cleaning and medicating the root canals, we help maintain your child’s teeth until they naturally fall out, ensuring proper oral development and avoiding future complications.

This straightforward procedure is essential for preventing further damage, relieving pain, and safeguarding your child’s dental health. At Theerthas Tooth Affair, our pediatric dental experts ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience for your little ones.

Oral Habits in Children: How to Protect Their Smile

Children often develop habits like thumb sucking, mouth breathing, tongue thrusting, or nail-biting, which can negatively affect their teeth and overall oral health. These habits usually start consciously but can become unconscious over time, making them harder to break.

At Theerthas Tooth Affair, we offer gentle solutions to help your child overcome these habits with specially designed habit-breaking appliances. These devices, whether removable or fixed, assist children who want to quit but need a little extra support. With our caring approach, we help ensure your child’s smile stays healthy, giving you peace of mind as a parent.
