Pediatric Dentistry is the area of dentistry dedicated to the oral health of babies, children and adolescents and whose main objective is to carry out preventive but also curative treatments so that the child reaches adulthood with a healthy, aesthetic and functional mouth.
When should a child visit the dentist for the first time? It may come as a surprise, but ideally, the first consultation with the dentist should take place in the first year of life, when the first deciduous teeth, better known as baby teeth, begin to emerge. It is from here that oral health begins to play an important role in the child's life, and it is therefore crucial to monitor the condition and growth of the teeth.
