FAQ
We Answer Your Questions
At what age should the first dental visit be?
At two years old!
We assess the regularity of baby teeth eruption, the presence of position anomalies, the presence of cavities or enamel issues that could lead to cavities when permanent teeth arrive.
Should decayed baby teeth be treated?
A child has the right to health, should live in an environment where healthy food and correct habits ensure that their baby teeth won’t decay, but unfortunately I too often see 4-5 year old children with multiple cavities, abscesses, and frequent antibiotic therapies.
Well yes, baby teeth should be treated immediately, and eating habits changed to reduce constant snacking outside of main meals, and introduce foods that offer good self-cleaning.
Pay attention to the first permanent molars that grow at the back, in addition to the deciduous dentition, without the loss of a baby tooth.
At what age should braces be put on?
It depends on the type of malocclusion.
If during childhood, 5-6 years and beyond, there’s mouth breathing, snoring, incompetent lips, meaning the child often has an open mouth, we can re-educate the posture of the mouth, tongue, and lips, also ensuring an improvement in the position of the teeth.
