Statistically, trauma is the leading cause of this visit. A blow, a fall or an accident are circumstances that directly affect the teeth and that require urgent treatment. On the other hand, it is possible to find cases of an increase in dental pieces, absence of permanent teeth, irregular size and alterations in dental enamel caused by the consumption of antibiotics.
What are the most common treatments carried out by a dentist for children?
Although its objective is the periodic revision of the teeth to verify that they are growing correctly aligned and without problems, there are a series of treatments that are also common:
– Endodontics to avoid closure of the apex.
– The removal of the gum that prevents the natural growth of a tooth (pulpotomy).
· The coating. It can be done indirectly, to avoid the sensation of pain at night, or directly (it is carried out on teeth that are not temporary for their correct protection).
– Pulpectomy. It consists of the removal of the dental pulp from the crown of the tooth.
When is it necessary to take the child to the dentist for the first time?
We advise that the first visit take place around the baby’s first year of life. It is important to mention that the consumption of fruit porridge, the use of the bottle and the complication of maintaining the dental hygiene of children at such an early age can alter their dental health. Thinking that the milk teeth are going to fall out, thus avoiding the problem, is not an option.
It is more advisable to visit a specialized clinic to check the baby’s teeth and, if necessary, take the necessary actions to effectively ensure the correct growth of the teeth.
