Pedodontics ( Child Dentistry)
Pediatric dentistry, also known as pedodontics, is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on:
Oral health care for children
From infancy to adolescence, pediatric dentists provide:
1. Preventive care (e.g., fluoride treatments, sealants)
2. Restorative treatments (e.g., fillings, crowns)
3. Diagnosis and management of dental problems (e.g., tooth decay, trauma)
4. Guidance on oral hygiene and diet
The goal is to promote healthy teeth and gums, prevent dental problems, and ensure a positive dental experience for children.
