Preventive and children's dentistry <\/strong><\/h4>

Visiting the dentist in the early period of the child is of great importance for preserving the\nhealth of his teeth. It is best to bring the child in the period after the milk teeth have\nerupted, when all the teeth are healthy. This visit consists of educating parents on how to\nmaintain their children's dental hygiene and playing with small patients. It is very important\nthat the first visits to the dentist remain a pleasant memory for the child. In this way, the\nchild gains a sense of trust in the dentist and cooperates much better in the later period.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

CHILD'S FIRST VISIT TO THE DENTIST<\/strong><\/p>

Visiting the dentist in the early period of the child is of great importance for preserving the\nhealth of his teeth. It is best to bring the child in the period after the milk teeth have\nerupted, when all the teeth are healthy. This visit consists of educating parents on how to\nmaintain their children's dental hygiene and playing with small patients. It is very important\nthat the first visits to the dentist remain a pleasant memory for the child. In this way, the\nchild gains a sense of trust in the dentist and cooperates much better in the later period.<\/p>

WHEN TO START BRUSHING YOUR TEETH?<\/strong><\/p>

This is one of the most common questions parents ask. Maintaining oral hygiene should\nstart even before the baby teeth erupt. Wipe the baby's tongue, gums and the inside of the\ncheek with a clean gauze soaked in water or chamomile tea. With the eruption of the first\ntooth, its washing begins. Brushes are used whose shape and size are adapted to the age of\nthe child, without the use of toothpaste. Brushing your teeth is recommended after every\nmeal, but the most important thing is to brush your teeth before going to bed. A small child\ndoes not know how to brush his teeth properly, so it is the parents who are responsible for\nthe health of their children's teeth.<\/p>

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF MILK TEETH<\/strong><\/p>

Baby teeth have multiple roles. They are very important for the child's nutrition and the\nnormal development of the orofacial system. Preserving the health of milk teeth until\nphysiological change is important for the emergence and position of permanent teeth. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

CARIES OF MILK TEETH<\/strong><\/p>

Caries of milk teeth appears very early, most often as a result of bad eating habits,\ninadequate maintenance of oral hygiene and parents' lack of information about the\nimportance of milk teeth and the possibilities for their preservation and repair. Caries often\naffects a large number of milk teeth and spreads quickly due to the anatomical and\nhistological characteristics of those teeth.<\/p>

CIRCULAR CARIES<\/strong><\/p>

Circular caries is the most severe form of caries of milk teeth. A large number of teeth are\naffected, and it most often occurs on the upper incisors. This caries is also called baby bottle\nsyndrome, because it is believed that the main cause of its occurrence is the prolonged use\nof sweetened beverages or pacifiers dipped in honey or sugar. It is characteristic that this\ncaries occurs in the neck part of the tooth and spreads in a circle around it. It proceeds\nwithout pronounced subjective complaints, and pain occurs only after opening the pulp or\nwhen swelling appears.<\/p>

Treatment of dental caries includes:<\/p>

  • \u00a0changing the child's bad eating habits<\/li>
  • \u00a0regular and proper maintenance of oral hygiene<\/li>
  • \u00a0fluoride prophylaxis<\/li>
  • \u00a0regular dental check-ups<\/li><\/ul>

    TRAUMA OF MILK AND PERMANENT TEETH IN CHILDREN<\/strong><\/p>

    Injuries to primary and permanent teeth as well as injuries to the soft tissues of the orofacial\nsystem in children occur during their intensive psycho-physical development. Damage to the\nteeth of both dentitions leads to impairment of the child's chewing function, speech and\naesthetic appearance.<\/p>

    Predisposing factors that can contribute to injury are:<\/p>

    • protrusion of the upper teeth<\/li>
    • large carious lesions<\/li>
    • certain diseases (epilepsy)<\/li>
    • contact sports that children train.<\/li><\/ul>

      A patient with an injury is considered an emergency and should contact a dentist\nimmediately.<\/p>

      FISSURE WATERING<\/strong><\/p>

      Caries usually occurs in the fissures of the teeth. Food is often retained in deep and narrow\nfissures, and maintenance of oral hygiene is difficult. Filling fissures is a preventive\nprocedure that prevents the formation of caries on the biting surfaces of the lateral teeth.\nAppropriate dental material is inserted into the previously cleaned and prepared tooth,\nwhich has the task of filling all places inaccessible for cleaning. The treatment is performed\nquickly and easily, and the child does not feel the slightest discomfort or pain.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":4429,"template":"","meta":[],"services_category":[14],"class_list":["post-419","services","type-services","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","services_category-preventivna"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services\/419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/services"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services\/419\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4436,"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services\/419\/revisions\/4436"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4429"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"services_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stomatolog-ns.rs\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services_category?post=419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
