Pediatric Dentistry in Obolon

Our dental clinic actively uses innovative procedures—fluoridation and remineralization. The modern technologies we employ help stabilize the condition and prevent the development of new areas of damage. This procedure strengthens the enamel and hard tissues of the teeth. It is performed using fluoride-containing varnishes and is painless for the child. The preventive solution is actively absorbed by the dental tissues within a few minutes. This dental service helps preserve the primary dentition until natural tooth replacement occurs.

The enamel on children’s teeth is thinner than that of adults and is therefore more susceptible to tooth decay. Timely treatment of decay in a baby tooth is the key to the health of the rest of the dentition. Decay is not just the destruction of dental tissue; it is an infection that leads to tooth loss and damage to the buds of permanent teeth, posing a danger to the entire oral cavity in the future. At the pediatric dentistry clinic in Obolon, experienced specialists treat all types of caries in both primary and permanent teeth in children. After an examination and consultation, the pediatric dentist will prescribe the appropriate treatment:

• superficial caries and rough spots are typically resolved without a drill (cleaning, remineralization);
• moderate and deep caries—using filling of the carious cavity and accompanying procedures (medicated lining, fluoride varnish).

While in the dental chair, the young patient is distracted by an engaging game. Here, the child can choose the color of their filling from a palette provided by the dentist. Thanks to the latest advancements, this material is ideal for baby teeth and will turn a visit to the dentist into an exciting experience rather than a scary one.

As an alternative to preventive measures, modern dentistry offers completely painless fissure sealing. The procedure is suitable for toddlers and young school-age children. It is painless, safe, and does not take much time. As a result, it prevents the development of early forms of tooth decay by “sealing” tooth surfaces in hard-to-reach areas. The use of a special sealant significantly reduces the risk of enamel damage.

It is strongly discouraged to self-treat stomatitis of any origin or location (gingivitis, glossitis, cheilitis). The diagnosis of the condition and its treatment should be determined by a qualified dentist following a thorough examination. Our pediatric dentistry clinic (Obolon, Med-Deo) has such specialists. Comprehensive treatment performed by a pediatric dentist will prevent the development of problems in the child’s oral cavity, ENT organs, and gastrointestinal tract.

A malocclusion can be corrected at any age. However, it is easier and more effective to treat misaligned teeth in children. A malocclusion is not just an aesthetic issue. This condition can lead to digestive and respiratory problems, as well as speech impairments. An orthodontist will thoroughly examine the child and, if bite correction is necessary, prescribe the most appropriate treatment method: braces, mouthguards, trainers, aligners, or plates. Psychologically, children find it easier to accept the need to wear orthodontic appliances. Therefore, it is best to correct the bite between the ages of 5 and 7 to spare the child from dental and psychological problems during the vulnerable teenage years.

Modern medical advancements and the use of innovative techniques and materials in pediatric dentistry in Obolon work wonders in this complex field. Pediatric orthodontists will explain to the young patient the importance of wearing the appliance and teach them how to care for their teeth and the appliance.
