The Pedodontic Department deals exclusively with children’s dental issues. During a child’s growth, their teeth need to be assessed periodically to identify any developing caries, facial anomalies, and oral habits that could affect their occlusion or bite.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Pedodontics and Pediatric Dentistry FAQs

A dental specialist who focuses exclusively on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of children’s teeth, oral habits, and developing jaw deformities at an early stage.

A pediatric dentist can detect structural or decay problems early on, allowing for easy prevention without the need for extensive procedures later in life.

White patches usually occur due to the demineralization of the dental enamel caused by early plaque accumulation.

Your child’s teeth may house certain types of harmless chromogenic bacterial colonies that release pigments, staining the teeth black.

As permanent teeth develop under the surface and prepare to erupt, they naturally resorb the roots of the milk teeth, causing them to loosen and shake.

If a child falls and a tooth gets avulsed, knocked out entirely, it must be placed immediately back into the child’s mouth, between the cheek and gums, or stored in a clean bottle of milk, and brought to the dentist immediately. The dentist can often successfully replant it if done quickly.

Early orthodontic interception is highly recommended in crossbite cases to ensure proper skeletal growth of the jaws.

Decayed teeth can be restored with fillings. If the decay has reached the nerve pathways deeply, a specialized pulpotomy or pulpectomy is performed.
