Preventive Care

Preventive care is a cornerstone of pediatric dentistry at Dr. Agarwal’s Dental Specialty Centre. The clinic offers a range of preventive services to help maintain children's oral health and prevent dental problems before they arise. These services include:

• Regular Dental Check-Ups: Routine check-ups are essential for monitoring the development of a child's teeth and gums. During these visits, the dentist can identify any potential issues early on and provide appropriate treatment.

• Dental Cleanings: Professional cleanings help remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing might miss. Cleanings are crucial for preventing cavities and gum disease.

• Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride treatments help strengthen the enamel and make teeth more resistant to decay. The application of fluoride is a quick and painless procedure.

• Dental Sealants: Sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars) to prevent cavities. They are especially beneficial for children who are at higher risk of developing cavities.

Education and Counseling

Educating children and parents about proper oral hygiene practices is a vital part of pediatric dentistry at Dr. Agarwal’s Dental Specialty Centre. The dental team provides guidance on:

• Brushing and Flossing: Teaching children the correct techniques for brushing and flossing to ensure they maintain good oral hygiene at home.

• Dietary Advice: Advising on healthy eating habits that promote good dental health, including reducing the intake of sugary snacks and drinks.

• Oral Habits: Addressing harmful oral habits such as thumb sucking and pacifier use, and providing strategies to help children break these habits.

Restorative Care

Despite preventive efforts, some children may still develop dental issues that require restorative treatment. The clinic offers a variety of restorative services to address these problems, including:

• Fillings: Tooth-colored fillings are used to repair cavities and restore the function and appearance of the affected teeth.

• Crowns: Dental crowns are used to protect and strengthen teeth that are severely decayed or damaged. Stainless steel crowns are commonly used for primary (baby) teeth, while tooth-colored crowns may be used for permanent teeth.

• Pulp Therapy: Also known as a "baby root canal," pulp therapy is performed to save a tooth that is infected or has a damaged nerve. This procedure helps preserve the tooth until it naturally falls out.

• Extractions: In some cases, a tooth may need to be extracted due to severe decay, infection, or crowding. The clinic ensures that extractions are performed with the utmost care and minimal discomfort.

Orthodontic Evaluation

Early orthodontic evaluations are an essential part of pediatric dentistry. The dentists at Dr. Agarwal’s Dental Specialty Centre assess the alignment of children's teeth and jaws to determine if any orthodontic treatment is needed. Early intervention can help guide the proper growth of the jaw and prevent more severe orthodontic issues later on.

Emergency Dental Care

Dental emergencies can happen at any time, and the clinic is equipped to handle them promptly. Whether it's a knocked-out tooth, a severe toothache, or a dental injury, the pediatric dentistry team provides immediate care to alleviate pain and address the issue.

Sedation Dentistry

For children who experience dental anxiety or have special needs, sedation dentistry is available to help them relax during their dental procedures. The clinic offers various sedation options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation, ensuring that each child receives the appropriate level of sedation for their needs.

Special Needs Dentistry

Dr. Agarwal’s Dental Specialty Centre is committed to providing dental care for children with special needs. The dental team is trained to handle a wide range of medical, physical, and behavioral conditions, ensuring that every child receives the care they need in a supportive and understanding environment.
