Children's dentistry

The dental treatment of children is equally - or even more - important as the one of adults.

Attaining proper nutritional habits and dental hygiene at an early childhood, as well as early and painless meeting with a children's dentist is of utmost importance.

Children also need dental screening every 6 months and calf's teeth should be treated in the same way as permanent teeth, since on one hand permanent teeth growing in a decaying environment will decay easier, while on the other, early loss of calf's teeth may cause severe orthodontic disorders.

The available technological background today allows for painless dental treatment with aesthetically perfect results for children as well.

Health education is an important task for dentists. It should be started as soon as possible, that is why antenatal counselling has a special importance. The growth of teeth starts even before birth, therefore the dental hygiene of the mother should be reinstated first.

The task of the parents is to take care of their children’s teeth. Children should acquaint with proper nutritional habits, such as not the quantity, but the frequency of sugar consumption is what matters! Sugary teas, juices will severely damage children's teeth!
