The Pedodontist: the specialized dentist for children Want to know more about the role of the Pedodontist? Find out what it does and why it’s important for children’s dental health. The Pedodontist is the dentist specialized in the treatment of children. Many dentists are able to treat the little ones, but Pedodontists have specific skills acquired through experiences with young patients or specializations in Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics. The approach to the child is unique, as their needs are different. Milk teeth, bone development, psychological aspects and oral hygiene motivation require a personalized approach. The child, if not influenced by the parents’ fear, is generally open to new things and the experience at the dentist should be pleasant and reassuring. Prevention of caries is one of the main objectives of pediatric dentistry and is achieved through correct oral hygiene, sealing of occlusal fissures, application of fluoride and dietary advice.
