Pediatric Dentistry

Children and teeth the Pediatric Dentistry is the part of dentistry that deals with the teeth of children. Children have 20 teeth, between teeth and toothache. 6 Years appear 4 wheels, one in each quadrant of the mouth, which are forever. They are the only ones who do not return to exit, it is therefore very important to take good care of them. Small we have so-called milk teeth and when we fall out new ones, that no longer have spare. Why you must care for them much as they are for life. A tooth has different parts: the outer corona (which see) and the inner or root (which we can not see because it is on the inside of the jaw bone). For the part of the Crown, the enamel is the outermost layer.

This part is very hard, even more than the bones. Beneath the enamel is dentin, is not as hard and below is the dental pulp, which is that note the Pang of pain when we eat food cold, hot, candy (sweets) or acids. The teeth have different shapes because they have different functions: crushing, chewing, etc. and at mealtime must be used properly. Baby teeth can suffer just like the adult cavities. What is more, by the characteristics of the milk teeth, once starts the decay, has an advance faster and affects nervous tissue of the tooth more quickly that in the adult. Cavities in baby teeth should be treated equal in the permanent pieces. Avoid the pain which cause cavities is already reason enough to preserve the health of your teeth, but in addition, we must remember that dental caries is an infectious process and can affect the formation of the permanent tooth.

Temporary teeth have many functions and very important for the normal development of the child (aesthetics, chewing, keep the space for the permanent teeth, influence on craniofacial growth, etc.). It should not be forgotten that last teeth on being substituted, molars, don’t fall up to 10-12 years and must perform their functions correctly until then.
