Understanding pediatric dentistry
Pediatric dental care focuses on the unique needs of infants, children and teens, including baby teeth, jaw growth, sealants on new molars and coaching for habits such as thumb sucking or pacifier use. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first dental visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth appearing. Baby teeth are not disposable. They guide adult teeth into position and are essential for speech and chewing, so a baby tooth lost early to decay can cause crowding of the permanent teeth later.
- First visit by age 1 or within 6 months of the first tooth
- Baby teeth guide adult teeth into position
- Sealants on new molars greatly reduce cavity risk
- Fluoride varnish is safe, quick and evidence based
