Pediatric Dentistry

What is Pediatric Dentistry?
Pediatric dentistry is a specialised branch that deals with the oral health of infants, kids, and adolescents. It focuses on preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic care to ensure healthy teeth during the most critical years of growth and development. At Tara Shine Dental in Ameerpet, Hyderabad, we create a child-friendly, safe, and comfortable environment so little ones feel at ease during every visit.

What Kind of Treatments Does It Include?
Our pediatric dental care covers a wide range of treatments tailored to children’s unique needs, such as:

• Routine dental check-ups and cleanings

• Fluoride applications and dental sealants for the prevention of cavities

• Cavity fillings and pulp therapy for decayed teeth

• Space maintainers to guide proper alignment when baby teeth are lost early

• Habit counseling for thumb sucking, mouth breathing, or teeth grinding

• Emergency dental care for injuries, knocked-out, or fractured teeth

When Should I Take My Child to the Dentist for the First Time?
In general, your child’s first visit to the dentist should be scheduled by the age of one, or within six months of the first tooth erupting. Early dental visits help detect issues promptly, establish healthy oral habits, and reduce the fear of dental care later in life. Regular check-ups every six months are ideal for monitoring growth and preventing problems.
