We believe that you want to give importance to oral health
as well as the importance you attach to the general health of your children who
are very valuable to you. You may not have enough information on this subject.
If pediatricians (pediatricians) are the doctors responsible for the general
health of the child, pedodontics are the dentists responsible for the
protection, diagnosis and treatment of oral health of children, children,
adolescents and disabled patients.

the future can be prevented.
Protective applications
In preventive measures aimed at preventing dental caries,
great importance is attached to educating the child and his / her family about
oral health and nutrition. In our clinic, dental brushing technique is applied
to our patients. Protective dentistry applications include superficial fluoride
and fissure sealants.
Fluorine applications
Fluorine is an element that prevents the tooth decay and
strengthens the structure of the teeth. Since the tooth enamel is not fully
mature when the teeth first drive, the newly driven teeth are generally more
resistant to decay & are prone to decay formation. Fluorine protects the
tooth enamel against female acid attacks and thus helps prevent tooth decay.
Professional superficial fluoride application is a protective method that can
only be applied by dentists. Surface fluorine should be administered by a
dentist every 6 months.
Fissure sealant
It is a fluid filler that does not allow the bacteria to
reach here and thus prevent the decay of the deep and decaying fissures
(grooves) on the chewing surfaces of the permanent teeth. Fissure sealant
applications should be checked every 6 months.
What should you do when your child hits his / her teeth at
the time of an accident?
If the tooth breaks; Find the fragment of a broken tooth,
contact your dentist as soon as possible with a piece of broken tooth.
If the tooth comes out as a whole; female, the female root
portion of the running water without rinsing, female milk or saliva in the
mouth to carry (never wrap a napkin), please contact your dentist within 2
hours at the latest.
When should the first dental examination be performed?
Generally, a dentist examination is required from the age of
1 with the continuation of the lower middle incisor teeth.
The first examination is usually a session where the family
meets the pediatrician and the child is used to the new environment in which he
/ she is observed. If there is no emergency, the child is not treated in the
first session to get used to the environment. First session If the child's
