Dental procedures can be done in different stages of children's teeth development, starting with the eruption stage of baby teeth and continuing with the appearance and development of permanent dentition, and then the wisdom tooth removal Highland Park clinics offer.
At each development stage, multiple dental problems can appear. Some are visible, or at least noticeable by parents, and most often accompanied by pain, such as decayed teeth, dental abscess, stomatitis etc., while others can only be detected by a dentist or orthodontist: incorrect or insufficient development of the dental arches, which undetected or untreated will lead to incorrect teeth alignment or crowding.
Happy experiences for kids, in dental office, can be obtained by providing a lot of attention, care and especially time to the little patients.
What do parents need to know?
Modern pediatric dentistry means more than just treating certain conditions. It includes prevention, medical education, performing treatments in optimal conditions to reduce or even eliminate the "fear of the dentist" etc.
Lack of adequate knowledge regarding oral hygiene, visits to the dentist only in emergency situations, when the little patients cry in pain, can negatively affect the harmonious development (physical and emotional) of children.
That is why it is very important for children to receive adequate medical education and healthy habits from an early age.
