In the Pedodontics department, Pedodontists (Pediatric Dentists) carry out full oral examinations and all kinds of treatment and preventive applications of all babies, children and young people by taking a psychological approach according to the physical and emotional development of children.
According to studies on the frequency of caries in recent years; It is seen that the frequency of caries in children reaches 90% in both primary dentition (between 2-6 years) and mixed dentition (between 7-12 years). For this reason, it is of great importance to apply preventive methods from caries in order to protect the future oral and dental health of the child, and most importantly, the general health of the child. Pediatric dentists, by making these preventive applications at the right time according to the child’s dental and age development, protect children from dental caries, which significantly affect their general health as well as their oral and dental health. You can completely protect your child from dental caries by having oral and dental check-ups at intervals (4-6 months).
