FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
  • When should my child's first dental visit be?
    The Indian Dental Association recommends a first visit by a child's first birthday, or as soon as the first tooth erupts, whichever comes first.
  • Are milk teeth really important if they eventually fall out?
    Yes. Milk teeth hold space for permanent teeth, support chewing and speech, and untreated cavities in them can cause pain and spread to other teeth.
  • What is a pit and fissure sealant?
    It is a thin protective coating applied to the deep grooves of back teeth to keep out food and bacteria, reducing the risk of cavities.
  • What is pulp therapy in children?
    Pulp therapy, sometimes called a milk tooth root canal, removes infected tissue from a decayed baby tooth and preserves it until it falls out naturally.
  • Does pediatric dentistry include orthodontic screening?
    Yes. Jaw and bite development are monitored at every visit so early signs of crowding or misalignment can be addressed at the ideal age.
  • What happens if my child loses a tooth too early?
    A space maintainer is fitted to hold the gap open so the permanent tooth has room to erupt correctly, preventing crowding or misalignment.
  • How often should children visit the dentist?
    Every six months, so problems can be caught early, when they are simpler and less costly to treat.
