Deciduous teeth

Treating baby teeth without pain and discomfort for the baby

Why do many adults believe that milk teeth do not need to be treated, because they will fall out in due time and permanent teeth will grow in their place. But this is a misconception that can lead to problems. Milk teeth are a guarantee of permanent health. Their health is of great importance in the formation of the correct permanent bite in the child in the future.

It is important to remember that untreated timely caries quickly spreads to the root of the milk tooth, the infection of which negatively affects the rudiment of the permanent. Our Center for Practical Dentistry with great responsibility and attention approaches to small patients. Children’s dentists conduct timely diagnosis and painless treatment of primary teeth.

Delicate treatment of decay of deciduous teeth

Typically, caries in children begins with the appearance of a white spot, which parents often perceive as simple plaque. And this is actually demineralization – a process when enamel loses important mineral components, primarily calcium. If you do not respond in a timely manner and do not take special measures, the stain will very quickly turn into a carious cavity. In this case, pain is not always felt, it can appear only when the nerve is reached, which leads to complication in the form of pulpitis and periodontitis.

On the front teeth, light spots and carious cavities are more visible to the naked eye, and on the side teeth such defects are difficult to notice, especially when they are on contact surfaces. Parents reveal carious destruction there only with a sufficiently large size. No need to wait for cavities in the milk tooth, you should regularly go to the pediatric dentist for preventive examinations in order to identify problems in the early stages. This will help to conduct minimally invasive, painless and quick treatment of decay of deciduous teeth.

Materials used for filling

Materials for filling milk teeth should not harm the baby’s body. Our Center for Practical Dentistry uses modern composite materials for filling cavities, which are characterized by the following qualities:

• Tightness;
• Strength;
• Aesthetics;
• Longevity.

Also, our doctors, when filling milk and permanent teeth, use rubber dam – special scarves with rubber, which isolate the tooth from the oral cavity during treatment and contribute to a better placement of the fillings. We have not been working on outdated methods for a long time. For example, we do not use silvering, after which the teeth are painted in a dark color, and this technique is also ineffective.

High-quality and painless canal treatment

The treatment of the roots of the baby’s milk teeth has a number of differences from the treatment of adults. Firstly, they are constantly in an active state – they first grow and form, then dissolve in order to make room for a permanent tooth. In our dental center, specialists use modern and safe materials and technologies in the treatment of the roots of milk teeth. The material with which root canals are sealed is completely absorbed with the root when it comes to that time. The work is carried out by an experienced pediatric dentist after a thorough examination and x-ray diagnostics.

We strongly recommend that you have a checkup at the pediatric dentist at least every 3-6 months. Specialists of our dental center in the city of Ivano-Frankivsk always take great care in the unique situation of each child. In the fight against carious monsters, every little patient receives a small gift from our tooth fairy for courage.
