Pediatric dentistry, also known as children’s dentistry, is the discipline of dentistry that is primarily responsible for diagnosing and treating all dental problems in newborns, infants, and children up to the age of adolescence. The goal is to provide a distinct and more specialized treatment to little patients since their teeth are still highly sensitive and in a continuous state of growth.
This is one ofDr. Changule’s Face Clinic & Research Center’s specialties, as we take a creative approach to children’s oral health, making the initial and following visits exciting and pleasant for them.
Our dentists have received specialized training and recognize the differences in the procedures, methods, and techniques required to treat a pediatric patient. The primary goal of pediatric dentistry is to protect the temporary teeth because any affection for them could impair the permanent tooth.
