Children are boundless sources of energy, laughter, and, unfortunately, occasional tumbles and falls. These incidents, combined with dietary habits, can sometimes lead to dental issues. At Kids Smiles Dentistry, we specialize in Restorative Dentistry for kids, ensuring that their brilliant smiles remain undiminished no matter what dental challenges they face.
What is Restorative Dentistry for Kids?
Restorative Dentistry includes a number of treatments aimed at repairing as well as replacing damage or lost teeth. This branch of dentistry is particularly important for children as it not only addresses immediate concerns but also sets the stage for lifelong oral health.
Key Services Offered:
- Dental Fillings: Cavities are common in children due to their affinity for sweets. We offer fillings that blend seamlessly with the natural tooth. Ensuring that the tooth is protected without compromising on aesthetics.
- Crowns: For teeth that are too damaged for fillings, we provide pediatric dental crowns designed specifically for children. These restore the tooth’s shape, size, and function.
- Pulp Therapy: If a cavity reaches the pulp (innermost part of the tooth), it can lead to pain and infection. Pulp therapy, akin to a root canal, removes the affected pulp, preserving as much of the tooth as possible.
- Space Maintainers: If a primary tooth is lost prematurely, space maintainers can be used to ensure that there’s adequate space for the permanent tooth to erupt in its rightful position.
- Dental Bonding: Minor chips or fractures can be corrected using dental bonding, a procedure where a tooth-colored resin material is applied and hardened with a special light.
