It's important to incorporate healthy oral hygiene practices for your child at a young age. Tooth decay is the most common childhood disease. A tooth can become decayed as soon as it erupts so even by age 1, we see children with cavities. Parents often have the misconception that baby teeth will fall out and are not important.
What is a Pediatric Dentist? Pediatric Dentists are dentists who care for children from birth through adolescence. Pediatric dentists receive 2-3 years of advanced training after dental school. Just as you would take your child to see a Pediatrician for their medical care, Pediatric Dentists are the "Pediatricians" in Dentistry.
Pediatric dentistry (formerly Pedodontics/Paedodontics) primarily focuses on children from birth through adolescence. The American Dental Association (ADA), recognizes pediatric dentistry as a specialty, and therefore requires dentists to undertake two or three years of additional training after completing a general dentistry degree.
Diet - Parents should provide children with a nourishing, well-balanced diet. Very sugary diets should be modified and continuous snacking should be discouraged. Bacteria ingest leftover sugar particles in the child's mouth and emit harmful acids that erode tooth enamel, gum tissue, and bone. Space out snacks whenever possible, and provide the child with non-sugary (low carb) alternatives like cheese, nuts, and veggies (carrot and celery sticks).
