Pediatric Root Canal (Pulpectomy)

A gentle procedure to remove infection from deeply decayed baby teeth, relieve pain, and preserve the tooth until it’s ready to fall naturally. After the root canal, pediatric crowns are placed to protect the treated tooth, restore chewing function, and maintain proper spacing for permanent teeth.

Dental Cleaning (Oral Prophylaxis)

Removes soft plaque and food buildup, helping prevent cavities and gum disease — while reinforcing healthy brushing habits from an early age.

Tooth Coating & Growth Guidance (Pit & Fissure Sealants + Appliances)

Thin, protective coatings are applied to the grooves of back teeth (molars) to stop food particles from settling in and causing cavities. In some children, space maintainers and oral appliances may also be used to guide the eruption of permanent teeth and support proper jawbone growth, setting the foundation for a healthy, aligned smile.

FAQs

Everything You Need to Know About Us

Taking care of your dental health is essential for your overall well-being. Here, we address common questions about dental care, from preventive tips to advanced treatments, to help you make informed decisions for a healthier, brighter smile.

Why would a child need a root canal on a baby tooth?

A root canal is needed when a milk tooth has deep decay or infection, and saving it helps maintain proper chewing, speech, and space for permanent teeth.

Is dental cleaning necessary for children?

Yes, regular dental cleanings remove plaque, prevent cavities, and help develop lifelong oral hygiene habits.

How do tooth coatings or sealants protect my child’s teeth?

Sealants form a protective shield over the back teeth, preventing food and bacteria from settling into deep grooves.

At what age should a child get dental sealants?

Children usually receive sealants between the ages of 6 and 12, when their first permanent molars erupt.

Does bottle feeding cause tooth decay in infants?

Yes, prolonged bottle feeding—especially with milk or juice—can lead to “baby bottle tooth decay.” Avoid letting babies sleep with a bottle and start cleaning their gums as soon as possible. Once your teeth appear, gently brush them with a soft-bristle brush and water.

What kind of toothpaste should children use?

For kids under 3, use just a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste — about the size of a grain of rice. For children aged 3 to 6, use a small pea-sized amount. Always choose toothpaste specifically designed for children and supervise brushing to ensure they don’t swallow it.
