Pediatric dentistry is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the oral health of children from infancy through adolescence. Dentists are trained to provide comprehensive dental care for children, including preventive care, restorative treatment, and orthodontic treatment. They also have experience in managing the unique needs of children with special health care needs.
Good oral health is essential for children's overall health and well-being. Dentists can help children develop good oral hygiene habits and prevent dental problems. They can also provide early intervention for dental problems, which can help prevent more serious problems from developing later in life.
