Pedodontics (pediatric dentist) is the field of expertise related to the dental care needs and dental treatments of our children.
Doctors who receive specialization training in pediatric dental treatments are given the title of pedodontist. Pedodontists are pediatric dentists who, after five years of general dentistry training, have additionally received special training in children's dental problems, treatment and communication with children.
From infancy to childhood; The first step of the oral and dental health stages from childhood to adulthood starts from infancy. Decayed or crooked milk teeth may mean that children may experience many dental and gum problems in adulthood or may need orthodontic treatment. With the treatment of decayed milk teeth, these risks are eliminated.
Not just for dental problems; Pediatric dentistry should be consulted regularly so that the child gets used to the dentist, learns the correct oral-dental care routines and makes them a habit.
Pedodontists may consider it appropriate to perform all the treatments of pediatric patients who cannot cooperate despite their careful efforts, under general anesthesia or sedation in a single session. These methods enable pediatric patients to be treated in a single session, painless and painless, without developing a permanent fear of the dentist.
In our clinics, all oral and dental treatments of our pediatric patients are completed under general anesthesia and sedation.
