Pediatric Dentistry (Pedodontics) is a specialized branch of dentistry that aims to protect, treat, and monitor the oral and dental health of children from infancy to the end of adolescence.
Pedodontics not only treats cavities; it also helps children overcome their fear of the dentist, helps them develop proper oral hygiene habits, and closely monitors their jaw development.
Pediatric Dentistry and Karaca Dental Clinic in Alanya
As a dental clinic in Alanya, Karaca Dental Clinic, we provide care to our pediatric patients with the meticulous approach of dentists Furkan KARACA and Emirhan KARACA. The main focuses of pediatric dentistry services in Alanya at our clinic are as follows:
1. Preventive Dentistry
Protecting children's teeth from decay is the most important task of pedodontics. Preventive treatments offered at our clinic include:
- Fissure Sealants: Clear, fluid-filled fillings applied to the deep grooves (fissures) on chewing surfaces to protect these areas from decay.
- Fluoride Applications: Professional fluoride applications that strengthen tooth enamel and increase its resistance to decay.
- Nutrition and Hygiene Education: Informing children and parents about proper brushing techniques and tooth-friendly eating habits.
2. Therapeutic Procedures
Common problems encountered in children are treated with care at our clinic:
- Baby and Permanent Tooth Fillings: Treating decayed teeth with fillings appropriate for the child's age and the extent of the decay.
- Pediatric Root Canal Treatments (Pulpectomy/Pulpotomy): Nerve treatments are performed to ensure that deep decay in baby teeth remains in the mouth until the tooth falls out.
- Early Tooth Extraction and Space Maintainers: If a baby tooth must be extracted early due to infection or trauma, space maintainers are applied to protect the space for the permanent tooth that will emerge.
3. Psychological Approach
Dentists in Alanya Furkan KARACA and Emirhan KARACA prioritize positive reinforcement in their interactions with child patients. By ensuring that children perceive the clinic as a safe and enjoyable place, we aim to provide them with a positive dental experience that will last a lifetime.
