Dentists specializing in pediatrics treat children from infancy through their teen years with specific attention to their oral health.

In addition, they are skilled and prepared to care for children with special needs. They will collaborate with doctors to design a complete plan that blends oral health with total health care.

Your child's health and development depend on baby teeth. It helps them chew, speak, and smile. Permanent teeth developing beneath the gums are also housed in the jaws. When permanent teeth drift into the vacant space when a baby tooth is lost too soon, it may be difficult for other adult teeth to find room. Teeth may become twisted or crowded as a result of this. As a result, providing infants with excellent dental care may help preserve their teeth for the rest of their lives.

It has been demonstrated that sucking a finger or a pacifier is soothing and caring for a child's growing mind. However, a child's facial skeleton or jaws may change shape, and their teeth may shift into a new position, depending on the behavior's frequency, severity, and length. Positive reinforcement has been demonstrated to be the most effective way to break the habit by the time the child is 24 to 36 months old. Most youngsters quit on their own as they get older. Please let us know if your child continues to suckle forcefully or if he does so after his permanent teeth sprout. This will enable us to examine the habit for any potential health issues.
