Children’s dentistry Zakopane, come to us! We have qualified doctors and many years of experience in working with the youngest patients.
Pediatric dentistry deals with specialist conservative treatment of patients in developmental age. It takes into account the different behaviors of children, depending on their age, and the different structure of their teeth and the masticatory system. Proper contact of the child with the dentist shapes the patient’s later attitude towards visits to the dentist’s office, which is why it is extremely important to choose the right dentist who can reach the little patient and understand his reactions and needs. In the case of children with a negative attitude to dental treatment, we offer treatment under general anesthesia or sedation (pharmacological sedation).
The first visit to the dentist is recommended even for small children, around the age of one year, when the first teeth show. The doctor will check the correctness of the development of the face and oral cavity, additionally provide parents with tips regarding the diet and care of milk teeth, as well as determine the indicated frequency of visits.
Dental treatment of the youngest
It causes stress for both them and their parents. Our specialists from the Medical Clinic Podhale Art in Zakopane will help you familiarize your child with the clinic, who will professionally assess their treatment needs.
Caries is a disease of the hard tissues of the tooth and it occurs when the demineralisation processes outweigh the remineralisation processes. The demineralization process is closely related to the presence of cariogenic bacteria and the action of acids directly on the hard tissues of the tooth.
The caries process consists of four elements:
The so-called early caries is usually very expansive and can lead to the destruction of dental tissue even in a few months. This may result in the need for extraction (tooth extraction). Therefore, if you notice any changes in the teeth (discoloration, spots) in a toddler, consult a pediatric dentist as soon as possible.
The period of replacement of the teeth is the moment when the child’s oral cavity, mainly the ‘sixes’ – teeth that require special care, should be carefully observed. Their appearance is not preceded by the loss of milk teeth, so the moment of eruption may be overlooked. Meanwhile, they are the last ones in the dental arch that are usually not cleaned by children. In addition, these teeth are characterized by a special structure – their chewing surface has deep grooves, favoring the accumulation of plaque, which is a cariogenic factor.
If the checkups in the dentist’s office are systematic, it is possible to capture the moment of tooth eruption in a child.
This is important because the dentist may then suggest sealing the fissures with a special substance with fluoride, which effectively protects against the development of caries.
We cordially invite you to use the services of pediatric dentists in our clinic in Zakopane and in our branches in Nowy Targ and Waksmund. In our clinic, in a nice, friendly atmosphere, your child will be taken care of and will receive professional dental help.
