Pediatric Dentistry Pedodontics


Dentistry is a field of expertise that aims to protect children's dental and oral health during infancy, childhood and adolescence, and to diagnose and treat dental and gum diseases seen in these age groups. In order for children to have a healthy oral and dental structure and to prevent future dental health problems, methods such as pediatric dentists, regular check-ups, gaining correct tooth brushing habits and preventive medical practices are used. Services such as treatment of tooth decay, fillings, root canal treatment, tooth extraction and orthodontic treatments are also within the scope of this field.

Pedodontics The branch of pediatric dentistry deals with many problems observed from childhood to adolescence. For example, pedodontists can help parents with how to relieve the pain experienced during teething in babies. It answers questions frequently asked by mothers and fathers such as what are the symptoms of teething in babies, when do babies get teeth, what is the order of teething in babies, how does teething occur in babies.

The child's first visit to the dentist is usually in the form of an introduction. No treatment is performed during the first examination, only an oral-dental examination is performed, and information is provided about oral hygiene and nutrition. The first step of the pedodontic triangle, which we believe is very important, consisting of 'Pedodontist-Child-Family', is taken during this session. Then, using the latest technologies, auxiliary dental examinations such as x-rays and caries activity tests are performed, and the child's current condition and needs in terms of dentistry are determined, and the family and child are informed about the procedures to be performed in the next session.
