Professional teeth cleaning for children

The maintenance of oral cavity hygiene and the most careful control over how the child brushes his teeth, still does not allow being confident that the child got rid of the dental plaque. That is why each child needs the professional teeth cleaning by the pediatric dentist.

Contrary to the popular belief that there is no need in taking care of the baby teeth, in fact, it is not so, because the problems with even baby teeth adversely affect the whole organism.

The problems with baby teeth cause the diseases of:

• permanent (molar) teeth;
• gastrointestinal tract;
• ENT organs;
• kidneys etc.

Most problems with teeth start from the formation of dental plaque, in which multiple bacteria, causing the development of tooth decay, concentrate. The dental plaque, if not removed very quickly, is mineralized, turning into the dental calculus, which cannot be removed in home conditions.

In view of the peculiarities of the child’s organism, the teeth cleaning is indicated for children more often than for adults. If the latter are recommended performing the professional teeth cleaning once per half a year, the children should visit the pediatric dentist for teeth cleaning each 3-4 months.

The hygienic teeth cleaning is the absolutely safe and painless process, which is useful as the child gets used from his childhood to the fact that the visit to a pediatric dentist is not associated with pain and discomfort. 

The professional teeth cleaning is performed only by the pediatric dentist, who is proficient in using the cleaning technique and can find a way to connect with the child and calm him in the unfamiliar atmosphere of the dentist’s room.

The procedure is safe and not traumatic; if necessary, in order to eliminate even the smallest possible discomfort, the pain relief gel can be applied to the gums of the child.

For little babies, the cleaning is performed by using the special soft brushes. For older children, the cleaning is performed both manually and by using Air Flow technique. After cleaning, the polishing and dental fluoride treatment are performed.
