We take care of your children’s mouth from their first tooth

With the eruption of a child's first set of teeth, also known as “milk teeth” or “temporary teeth”, you should start brushing them, not necessarily using toothpaste. Children learn by imitation, it will always be a good lesson for them to see how you brush your teeth and how you floss. Apart from a good example for your children on how to use the brush and the floss, it is also a valuable lesson of good hygiene habits that the child will want to imitate.

It is advisable to visit the dentist periodically, because it will create the habit of dental check-ups in the child, which will reduce their anxiety and fear of the unknown. In addition, going to the dentist periodically has the advantage of early detecting any dental problem, enabling simpler and less traumatic solutions.

For Bahillo Dental Polyclinic, looking after children's teeth is a priority issue. We take care of children of all ages, since the fundamental role of the paediatrician is the prevention and treatment of damaged milk teeth, thus helping to avoid possible negative repercussions in the future permanent or definitive teeth.

Pulp regeneration

At Bahillo Dental Polyclinic, thanks to our team’s teaching and research activities, we can perform an innovative technique for pulp regeneration on children who would otherwise need an endodontic treatment, thus avoiding endodontics and preserving vitality on those teeth with important pathologies at such an early age.

Our team of professionals is especially aware of the risk of caries that some children accumulate. Although the incidence of caries in the general population has decreased, some children suffer a large number of caries lesions. It is necessary to strictly monitor these high-risk patients, to minimize future caries lesions and preserve their oral health.

Visiting a paediatric dentist helps prevent dental problems

Taking children to the dentist from an early age is not only advisable, but essential. During these visits, we are able to observe how their teeth are developing and identify any potential deviations, malocclusions or complications in the tooth eruption process.

It also helps prevent cavities and other common oral disorders during childhood, before they become serious. To take care of your children's oral health from the beginning, trust our specialised children's dentist.

Frequently asked questions to our children's dentist in Santiago

When is pulp regeneration necessary?

When a tooth, usually in children, has suffered nerve damage but there is still a chance that the tissue will regenerate, pulp regeneration is recommended. It is a conservative option to prevent extraction and preserve the function of the tooth.

When should I take my child to the dentist for the first time?

The first visit to the dentist is recommended before the age of one or when the first tooth erupts. This allows problems to be prevented and parents to be educated about proper oral hygiene from the outset. Contact our paediatric dentists and take the first step towards a healthy and happy smile from childhood.

How often should paediatric dental check-ups be carried out?

Although the frequency may vary depending on the child's needs, it is best to have a check-up every six months. Regular visits help to identify bite problems, cavities or alterations in tooth development early on.
