Paediatric Dentistry is the area of Dentistry exclusively dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the oral health of babies, children, adolescents and patients with special needs. It closely monitors the child from infancy to adolescence.
The Paediatric Dentistry appointment allows you to establish a relationship between the paediatric dentist, the child and their parents or guardians.
This consultation includes all aspects of oral health care in a comprehensive manner and is coordinated and family-centred.
This is where the foundations are created so that more and more people know how to take care of their own Oral Health when they reach adulthood.
Monitoring a child's baby teeth is essential to ensure that their permanent teeth are healthy and problem-free.
It is recommended that the first appointment takes place from the moment the first teeth emerge, normally from 6 and 12 months.
The paediatric dentists must adapt their language and posture to the child so that it understands the messages transmitted.
Only then will the child be receptive to complying with the instructions and advice given by the dentist and, above all, receptive to carrying out the necessary treatments.
