Kids Dentistry: Laying the Foundation for a Lifetime of Healthy Smiles
At The Tooth Bay Dental in Perungudi, Chennai, we believe that good oral health begins in childhood. Our kids’ dentistry program is designed to provide comprehensive dental care for children in a friendly and comforting environment.
Why Kids Dentistry?
Children’s teeth are more susceptible to decay and other dental issues due to their love for sweets and often inconsistent oral hygiene habits. Early dental visits teach children the importance of taking care of their teeth and help identify any potential issues before they become serious.
Teething: The First Milestone
Teething is a significant milestone in a child’s development but can come with its challenges. It typically begins around six months of age and can cause discomfort as teeth push through the gums. Symptoms include irritability, drooling, and a tendency to chew on objects.
Easing Teething Discomfort
- Chew Toys: Safe, soft chew toys can provide relief.
- Cold Compress: A cold washcloth or teething ring can soothe sore gums.
- Gentle Massage: Rubbing your child’s gums with a clean finger can be comforting.
Services Offered
- Regular Check-ups: Monitoring growth and development.
- Preventive Care: Cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect against decay.
- Restorative Treatments: Fillings, crowns, and more for when cavities occur.
- Orthodontic Evaluations: Assessing the need for braces or other corrective procedures.
