Pediatric dentistry

Pediatric dentistry focuses on the dental care of babies, children and adolescents, ensuring that their teeth develop healthy and strong.

Our specialized pediatric dentistry team is trained to address the specific dental concerns of childhood, from the first tooth to the transition to permanent teeth.

In addition to treatments, we place special emphasis on education. We guide children and their parents in the best practices of oral hygiene, nutrition and healthy habits, thus establishing the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.

And because we know that the dental clinic can be an intimidating place for little ones, we have created a friendly and welcoming environment, where each child feels comfortable and safe.

Some of the most common treatments include

At SmilesDent Alameda we believe that each stage of life has its own joys and challenges, and we are proud to be the trusted ally for families in their child’s dental journey.

Prophylaxis and dental cleanings

These regular cleanings help remove tartar and plaque, preventing cavities and periodontal disease.

Application of fluoride

Fluoride helps strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attack and therefore reducing the risk of cavities.

Sealants

This is a protective coating placed on the occlusal (masticatory) surfaces of the posterior permanent teeth to prevent cavities.

Cavity treatments

This may include fillings, crowns, or pulp treatments such as pulpectomies on affected primary teeth.

Interceptive orthodontics

Used to correct bite or alignment problems at an early stage, often using removable or fixed appliances.

Space maintenance

If a primary tooth is lost prematurely, a space maintainer may be used to ensure that adjacent teeth do not shift and block the eruption of the permanent tooth.

Treatment of dental trauma

Children are prone to accidents. The treatment of fractured, displaced or avulsed teeth (completely dislodged from their socket) is common in pediatric dentistry.

Oral hygiene education

The pediatric dentist teaches children proper brushing and flossing techniques and advises on healthy eating habits.

Frequently asked questions pediatric dentistry

At what age should I take my child to the pediatric dentist for the first time?

It is recommended that the first visit be when the first tooth appears or, at the latest, when the child turns one year old.

Talk to your child about what he can expect and reinforce the idea that it is a positive experience. Reading books or watching videos about visiting the dentist can also help familiarize them with the process.

It is essential to transmit calm and security. At Smile Dental Alameda, our team is trained to work with children with anxieties, and we have created an environment specifically designed to make little ones feel at ease.

Like adults, a check-up every six months is recommended, although the pediatric dentist may suggest more frequent visits if there are specific needs.
