Top-Notch Dental Care for Your Little Ones
At Lilac Medical Centre, we offer a variety of services to help keep your child’s smile healthy and sparkling. From nitrous gas (laughing gas) to early screening and primary teeth fillings and crowns, we have the tools and experience to provide the best possible care for your child. We also offer space maintainers to help keep teeth in their proper place after baby teeth have fallen out.
A child’s teeth are important for chewing and speaking, and for providing support for the development of the jaw bones. Dental care services for children are essential to their overall health and well-being. These services help to prevent and treat oral health problems that can affect a child’s ability to eat, speak, and learn. They also help to ensure that a child’s teeth and gums are healthy and free from disease.
Regular Pediatric dental visits are important for children. By checking for problems and diagnosing them at an early age, our dentists can provide quick and efficient treatment that prevents further issues in the future. We also offer professional cleaning for your little ones. These cleanings remove plaque and tartar that can cause tooth decay and gum disease. Our clinic welcomes children as young as two years old.
This will help the child get used to the dentist and dental care as well as guarantee healthy teeth and gums as they grow.
Nitrous Gas Application (Laughing Gas)
Nitrous oxide, also sometimes called “laughing gas,” is a safe and effective sedative agent that is often used to help both children and adults relax during dental procedures. We understand children can be very anxious during a dentist appointment, which is why we opt to use Nitrous oxide to help them go through the treatment smoothly and safely.
It is one of the most popular sedatives because it works quickly and wears off just as fast, which is why it’s often the sedative of choice for children’s dental procedures as it helps them to relax and feel more comfortable while the dentist is working.
Early Pediatric Dentistry Screening
By beginning dental screenings and cleanings early, we can help prevent cavities and other problems down the road. It’s never too early to start thinking about your child’s dental health. In fact, we recommend that children have their first dental visit within six months of getting their first tooth. While you may not think that your child’s teeth are worth worrying about at such a young age, early dental visits are important for a number of reasons.
They can help to identify any potential problems early on, and they can also help your child to get used to the dentist’s office so that they’re more comfortable with future visits. In fact, by age three, most children have at least one cavity. And by age five, one in four children have cavities in their primary teeth.
Dental cavities are one of the most common chronic diseases in young children. They are also easily preventable by practicing good oral hygiene and having regular dental check-ups.
Primary teeth Fillings and Crowns
Primary teeth, also called baby teeth, are important for many reasons. They help guide permanent teeth into place, and they are important for proper chewing and speaking. Baby teeth also hold space for permanent teeth. When a child loses a primary tooth too early, the surrounding teeth can shift into the empty space. This can cause problems with the way the permanent teeth come in. That’s why it’s important to take care of your child’s primary teeth.
When a child’s primary teeth have been damaged by decay, a filling or crown may be needed to restore the tooth. A filling is used when there is still some healthy tooth remaining. A crown is used when most of the tooth has been lost to decay.
A child may actually need a filling or crown for one or more of the following reasons:
-Tooth decay has reached the pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains the nerves and blood vessels)
-There is a large cavity that cannot be restored with a filling
-A primary tooth has been fractured
-A primary tooth is discolored or misshapen.
A filling or crown will help to restore the function and appearance of the tooth. It will also help to prevent further decay and keep your child’s teeth healthy and strong.
Space Maintainers
A space maintainer is an orthodontic appliance used to keep the space in a child’s mouth open after the loss of a primary tooth. The purpose of a space maintainer is to preserve the space until the permanent tooth erupts.
This procedure is necessary when a primary tooth is lost prematurely due to decay or injury. Without it, the teeth adjacent to the empty space may drift into the empty space and cause a crowding later on once the permanent teeth start growing.
At Lilac Medical Centre, pediatric dentistry Section, a space maintainer is a simple appliance that is cemented into place by the dentist. There are two types of pediatric dentistry space maintainers: removable and fixed. They are comfortable and easy for children to wear, and they are usually not worn for more than a year or two and are custom made to fit every child.
Behavior Management and Awareness
Children’s dental health is essential to their overall health and well-being. As parents, we want to do everything we can to ensure our children have healthy teeth and gums. However, sometimes it can be difficult to get our children to brush their teeth and floss regularly. That’s why it’s important to have a behavior management and awareness plan in place. With a little planning and effort, you can help your children develop healthy habits that will last a lifetime.
Our Pediatric dentists are always happy to share the best tips and plans with you to ensure your children will have a healthy dental routine that will protect their teeth and prevent a lot of problems in the long run.
