Pedodontics (pediatric dentistry) is the branch of dentistry that aims to preserve the health of both primary and permanent teeth, starting from infancy and continuing until the end of adolescence. By anticipating possible problems in our young patients, treatment plans are created in accordance with their growth and developmental stages.

Under pedodontic treatments, procedures such as fillings, root canal treatments, pulpotomy, stainless steel crowns, strip crowns, space maintainers, pediatric dentures, fluoride applications, and fissure sealants are performed. For primary teeth, special filling materials called compomers are used in pediatric dentistry. These materials, available in many colors such as yellow, pink, green, blue, red, and white, help increase children’s motivation during dental treatments.

Pedodontic treatment is essential because primary teeth maintain the space for the permanent teeth that will replace them and guide them during eruption. If a primary tooth is extracted early, this natural space-maintaining function is lost. The primary goal of pediatric dentistry is to take preventive measures against dental problems and guide children toward a cavity-free future. Moreover, healthy primary teeth are crucial for proper nutrition, speech, and overall development. To ensure a healthy smile for the future and to help children have a fearless dental experience, treatments are carried out by our team of specialists.
