Restorative Care for Children and Adolescents

Restorative dentistry focuses on diagnosing and treating damages on the teeth caused by trauma or disease. It also involves preventive measures to ensure your kids wouldn’t have to undergo teeth restoration. Nevertheless, the Oshawa dentist has plenty of options to help put back the smile on your children’s faces. These include the following treatments:

Pulpotomy

Each of your kid’s teeth has tiny, soft tissues in them called pulps. These tissues are vital in delivering the blood supply to the developing teeth. Exposing it by damage and decay causes inflammation and dental pain. Restorative dentistry performs a pulpotomy to remove the infected pulp and prevent further complications.

Crowns

Dental crowns are also recommended for kids teeth restoration and protection. Children’s crowns are made of stainless steel to ensure durability and reliability. Especially those kids who have had pulpotomy, they will need dental crowns to shield the remaining structure of their teeth. The Oshawa dentist suggests kids to refrain from eating hard and sticky food while they have their crowns. By the time that the primary tooth becomes loose to give way for the permanent teeth, the crown naturally falls off with it.

Fillings

Another type of restorative dentistry procedure is the application of dental fillings. Fillings are necessary to fill in a tooth that has been damaged from severe decay. This occurrence is common to kids due to their being fond of sweets. After clearing out the disease in the tooth, a hole will be exposed to the risk of bacteria buildup and tooth sensitivity. To prevent this complication, kids could have silver or white fillings to protect their teeth.

The Oshawa dentist, together with our team of specialists are pretty much experienced at handling kids. Rest assured that your precious ones will receive the most suitable treatment with utmost care and comfort
