Preventive measures In Child Dental Care
Just like routine vaccinations, implementing the following preventive dental measures ensures that children maintain healthy, beautiful, and disease-free teeth. This directly contributes to their physical and mental well-being, ultimately resulting in healthy and dazzling smiles.
Pit And Fissure Sealants
The morphology or shape of a tooth plays an important role in dental decay. Back teeth are typically more prone to decay than front teeth. Teeth with deep pits and fissures, which are natural grooves in teeth, are especially susceptible to decay as food particles can easily become lodged in them. These food accumulations are challenging to remove with regular brushing.
Pit and fissure sealants are highly recommended for children at high risk of dental decay, including those with dry mouth, physical or mental impairments, undergoing orthodontic treatment, or taking medications for systemic illnesses. Children who have experienced dental caries in their primary teeth are also vulnerable to decay in their permanent teeth.
