Pediatric Dentistry (Pedodontics)

Pedodontics (Pediatric Dentistry)

Pedodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on preserving, treating, and monitoring the oral and dental health of children. Defne Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic offers various services aimed at maintaining children's dental health and treating potential problems.

Pediatric Dental Examinations and Check-Ups

Regularly examining children's teeth and oral structures is of great importance for early detection and prevention of potential issues. Defne Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic provides detailed examination and check-up services by expert pedodontists. These examinations include a comprehensive assessment of the child's dental development, jaw structure, and oral hygiene.

Fluoride Applications and Fissure Sealants

To prevent tooth decay in children, preventive treatments such as fluoride applications and fissure sealants are applied. Fluoride applications strengthen tooth enamel, preventing decay, while fissure sealing makes teeth more resistant to decay. These treatments are important steps in maintaining children's dental health.

Pediatric Dental Fillings and Restorations

Dental fillings are commonly used to treat tooth decay in children. At Defne Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic, pediatric dentists provide treatment using appropriate filling materials with the child's comfort and health in mind. Additionally, dental fillings are applied to prevent decay from progressing, restoring tooth function and aesthetics.

Pediatric Tooth Extraction and Orthodontic Treatment

When necessary, tooth extraction may be required in children. Additionally, orthodontic treatment methods can be applied when children's dental development is irregular. These procedures are meticulously performed by expert pedodontists at Defne Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic, with detailed planning and informing the child and their family.

Special Hygiene Education for Children and Family Counseling

It is crucial to instill basic hygiene habits such as tooth brushing and flossing in children. At Defne Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic, pedodontists provide education on oral and dental health to children and their families. Additionally, family counseling services are offered to provide guidance on maintaining children's dental health and recommending healthy habits for home.
