Children's professional hygiene

Children's professional hygiene

We all know perfectly that dental problems begin with dental caries. And the main reason for the development of caries is poor-quality and irregular home oral hygiene. According to world statistics, 90% of the population suffer from caries, 30% do not brush their teeth at all, and 69% do not stick to the rules of home hygiene.

Now imagine what the situation is with our kids, who, due to their ignorance, do not brush their teeth well. The fact is that the milk tooth is much weaker in structure than the permanent molar tooth. It is more fragile and much more actively influenced by external factors.

Especially milk teeth are faster and more actively affected by caries. In addition, it is worth considering the fact that the health of molars directly depends on the health and condition of milk dental units. To avoid this, proper and conscientious oral hygiene is essential.

It is also known that even proper home hygiene will not be enough to maintain the health of your smile. Due to different lifestyles, bad habits, dietary habits and other factors, dental plaque still accumulates on the tooth surface. And, unfortunately, it is impossible to cope with hard plaque at home for both an adult and a child.

It is necessary to visit the dentist every 3-6 months for a follow-up examination and professional oral hygiene. So for young patients, this procedure is even more necessary, due to the vulnerability of milk teeth, the incredible love of our kids for sweets and poor-quality home dental care.

Professional oral hygiene for children in the network of clinics

Professional children's cleaning is a fundamental method in order to prevent caries and gum disease.

Check-up and consultation

Like any other dental procedure, a professional cleaning for children begins with an examination and consultation. Of course, for a child, everything is a little brighter and more interesting, because our children's specialists are able to turn a baby's visit into an exciting game and adventure. Of course, it is worth focusing your attention on the special service at the Sa-Nata clinic - psychological adaptation for children.

Purification from pollution.

The cleaning technique depends on the age and the state of oral cavity. Since children's milk teeth are very delicate and sensitive, in most cases children's cleaning is quite gentle. A pediatric specialist usually performs the manipulation manually, without the use of active devices and abrasive components.

At the beginning, the therapist determines the degree of plaque on the teeth, then with a small soft brush that rotates and cleans the surface of the teeth with a special “tasty” paste. The paste in this case polishes and provides a soft contact of the brush with the surface of the milk tooth. At this stage of the procedure, the pediatric specialist goes through the most inaccessible places where plaque and tartar are most actively collected.

Also, in the case of a strong accumulation of dental deposits, the dentist can use thin instruments and strips, as well as ultrasound. From 8 / 9 years it is also possible to use Air Flow in case of severe accumulation of tartar.

Consolidation of the result and prevention

After the teeth are thoroughly cleaned of dirt, the surface of the teeth can be covered with fluoride varnish, which prevents new dirt from lingering on the teeth, which strengthens the tooth enamel and copes with sensitivity. In order to prevent the development of caries, it is possible to fix the result with the “fissure sealing” procedure.

Hygiene lesson

The obligatory final stage of professional children's cleaning is a “home hygiene lesson for a child”. A pediatric specialist will not only teach you how to properly brush your teeth at home, but also instill an interest and desire to keep the teeth clean and healthy. A nice bonus in our clinic for each baby is a gift at the end of the visit!

Teach your children from an early age to healthy habits, careful and regular hygiene and a responsible approach to maintaining their health throughout their lives! This will significantly reduce difficulties and problems in the future and, of course, save the beauty and health of your smile!
