The Paedodontics Department at Aster Medcity is dedicated to providing comprehensive and specialized dental care for infants, children, and adolescents, ensuring their oral health is maintained from an early age. The department is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and a child-friendly environment, making dental visits a comfortable and stress-free experience for young patients.
Comprehensive Pediatric Dental Services
The department offers a wide range of preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic dental services to address various oral health concerns in children:
- Preventive Dentistry: The team emphasizes the importance of good oral hygiene and preventive measures to avoid dental issues. This includes fluoride applications, dental sealants, regular cleanings, and patient education on proper brushing and flossing techniques.
- Dental Caries Treatment: Tooth decay is a common issue in children, and the department provides effective treatments such as dental fillings, crowns, and pulp therapy (root canal treatment for baby teeth) to restore dental function.
- Tooth Extractions: If a tooth is severely decayed, damaged, or causing orthodontic concerns, extractions are performed with utmost care and minimal discomfort.
- Surgical Removal of Impacted Teeth: Some children may have teeth that fail to erupt properly, leading to discomfort or alignment issues. Surgical intervention ensures that these teeth are safely removed or guided into proper positioning.
- Space Maintainers & Orthodontic Guidance: Premature loss of baby teeth can cause misalignment of permanent teeth. Space maintainers are used to preserve the gap until the permanent tooth emerges.
- Management of Dental Trauma: Accidents and sports injuries can lead to broken or knocked-out teeth. The department provides emergency dental care to manage such situations efficiently.
- Treatment for Gum Diseases & Oral Infections: Gum diseases can occur in children due to poor oral hygiene or underlying health conditions. The department offers treatments to maintain healthy gums and prevent further complications.
- Specialized Care for Children with Special Needs: The team is trained to provide dental care for children with special healthcare needs, ensuring a compassionate and customized approach to their treatment.
The Paedodontics Department at Aster Medcity strongly advocates for preventive dentistry, aiming to reduce the need for complex dental procedures in the future. The specialists educate both children and parents on the importance of early dental care, helping establish lifelong oral hygiene habits.
