Pediatric dentistry specializes in the oral health care of children from infancy through the teenage years. It focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, management, and treatment of a wide range of oral health problems specific to children and adolescents, including developmental issues, cavities, orthodontic concerns, and behavioral difficulties related to dental visits. Pediatric dentists are trained to provide a comfortable, understanding, and supportive environment for young patients, helping to instill positive dental habits that last a lifetime.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child’s first dental visit occur within 6 months after the first tooth emerges and no later than 12 months of age.
Children should have routine dental exams and cleaning every 6 months. More frequent visits may be needed if there are concerns like tooth decay or poor oral hygiene.
Pediatric dentists have 2-3 additional years of specialized training in treating children’s dental needs. General dentists can treat children but may refer complex cases to other specialists.
Help them feel comfortable by explaining what will happen, avoiding negative language about pain, starting good oral hygiene habits, reading books on going to the dentist, and considering a pre-visit tour of the office.
Dental sealants are protective plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities. Getting them is recommended starting around age 6.
They use child-friendly offices, explain procedures, use distraction techniques, work gently and slowly, and may offer nitrous oxide for certain procedures. Parental presence can also help.
