Child as a patient

Regular access to a child by a dentist is extremely important. That's how dental caries is prevented and how we help form a child-patient who is not afraid of dental examination or possible tooth repair.

The first visit to the dentist should be planned at the age of one when the child starts teething. At that first visit parents are advised about oral hygiene and its importance, the selection of the appropriate tooth-brush, proper diet and elimination of bad habits that cause jaw deformation, in other words problems related to the pacifier and bottle-related tooth decay.

It is important to point out the role of the parents and the significance of their attitude to prevention in oral health.

The milk teeth play a significant part in not only prehension and mastication but also in phonation. They also keep the place for permanent teeth. Dear parents, come as soon as possible to your child's first dental appointment, take proper care of your toddler's diet, select the right tooth-brush and tooth-paste. This is a formula for beatiful and healthy teeth, a lovely smile and pleasant visits to the dentist.
