Preventive dental care is a cornerstone of pediatric dentistry. Routine check-ups, professional cleanings, and fluoride treatments help protect children’s teeth from cavities and other dental issues. Pediatric dentists also provide sealants, which are thin coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to prevent decay. In addition to clinical treatments, pediatric dentists place a strong emphasis on educating children and parents about good oral hygiene habits, proper brushing and flossing techniques, and the importance of a balanced diet in maintaining healthy teeth.
