What are the most common dental procedures in pediatrics?

The most common dental procedures in pediatrics include:

​

  • Tongue-tie and Lip-tie Procedures: We use the LASER to safely remove the frenum in the mouth to help the baby nurse and can lead to improved speech, eating and better facial development.

  • Fillings: This is when a dentist removes decay from a tooth and then fills it with material (composite resin)

  • Crowns: We reduce the tooth and over it we place a tooth-colored white zirconia crown. 

  • Tooth Extractions: This is usually done if there is too much damage decay on a tooth or if baby teeth need to be removed.

What is the main goal of Pediatric Dentistry?

The main goal of pediatric dentistry is to: 

​

1. ensure that children have healthy teeth and mouths

2. via early age appointments, remember, the first dental visit should be by age 1 or when the first tooth erupts in the mouth.

3. maintain the baby teeth in the mouth because they preserve the space for the incoming teeth
