Your pediatric dentist Frankfurt will inform

Pediatric dentist Frankfurt: Welcome our new pediatric dentist with us Mr. Ibraheem Hatout. Mr. Hatout has been working in children’s dentistry in Frankfurt for several years. He holds the internationally recognized Master of Science in Pediatric Dentistry. In the following article we would like to describe the main focus of children’s dentistry.

prophylaxis

To prevent damage to your child’s teeth, your pediatric dentist in Frankfurt has developed a prophylaxis concept that is tailored to every age group.

The first years of life are crucial for healthy teeth. If the course is set correctly, your children can keep healthy teeth for a lifetime and avoid unpleasant experiences with the dentist. We wish every child healthy teeth and gums for life. You don’t need a secret recipe for this. Daily dental care, healthy eating and regular prophylaxis appointments are sufficient. To prevent damage to your child’s teeth, we have developed a prophylaxis concept that is tailored to every age group.

As part of the regular half-yearly check-ups, children from the age of 6 receive additional treatments for prophylaxis every 6 months.

The following Services our prophylaxis program includes:

Toothbrush school

To ensure that everything works properly, there is a toothbrush school at your Frankfurt dentist. The kids are taught how to use a toothbrush in a playful way. Cleaning starts with the first tooth. As soon as the approach is recognizable, you should start with a small toothbrush with a suitable brush head. Teeth are often very close together. So that everything is clean between the teeth, there is also a special training with dental floss or special floss hooks.

If you are unsure about acquiring the right “tools”, come by and your Frankfurt dentist will be happy to advise you.

Visualization of dangerous plaque

After practicing brushing your teeth, the staining technique shows how well brushing your teeth works and then quickly and painlessly put an end to the plaque.

Intensive cleaning and polishing of the teeth

Our pediatric dentists use gentle polishing brushes for cleaning. The aim is always to relieve the children of the fear of the dentist and to make the visit to the dentist as pleasant as possible.

Fluoridation of the teeth

After cleaning the teeth, the teeth of the child are fluoridated by our dentists. A fluoride varnish is applied locally to the children’s teeth. The local fluoride treatment increases the resistance of the teeth to acid attacks and bacteria.

Sealing of the molars

The large molars have deep furrows and dimples on their occlusal surfaces. These anatomical features are called fissures in dentistry. Fissures are dangerous sites for caries, because the food remains “hold on” well here. Unfortunately, the bristles of the toothbrush often do not reach into the fissures. These difficult to access fissures can be sealed and protected with a special material. The seal must be checked regularly and replaced if necessary if it is lost or leaking. This technique is perfect for preventing tooth decay. From the age of six, the health insurance companies cover the cost of sealing in the posterior region of the tooth.

nutrition counseling

Again and again very young children with advanced caries come to our dental practice. Bacteria alone cannot damage teeth because the enamel is too hard. Caries can only develop in combination with sugar consumption. Whereby especially the nocturnal sucking on the baby bottle is dangerous for the development of caries.

If your child sucks on a bottle of juice, juice spritzer or children’s tea all day or at night, the bacteria are nourished and the teeth get the dreaded tooth decay. Reducing the consumption of sugary drinks is more important than a sugar-free diet. These should not be consumed by your child more than twice a day. What many parents do not know is that milk drinks and fruit juices are also sugary drinks.

Please leave the children Not fall asleep with a bottle of milk, juice or porridge!

Diagnosis

At every beginning of a dental treatment by our pediatric dentists there is diagnostics. The need for treatment is determined here. The standard diagnostics in pediatric dentistry consist of procedures:

Caries risk determination:

Here the risk of caries is determined. The following treatment steps of our pediatric dentists are based on these findings.

Digital x-ray:

In some cases it is necessary to take radiographs of children’s teeth for further therapy planning. In our dental practice, X-rays are used exclusively digitally. The radiation exposure can be reduced by up to 90%.

Milchzahnendodontie

These are the nerves of the milk teeth. Bacteria causing caries, the so-called streptococci, lead to infections particularly quickly in milk teeth. If the tooth decay has already reached the tooth nerve, the diseased part must be removed in many cases. This treatment method is called endodontics (root canal treatment) in dentistry.

Such a treatment must be done for milk teeth?

The health of the milk teeth is extremely important for the dental health of the underlying permanent teeth. The earlier you look after children’s dental health, the healthier your teeth will be in adulthood.

fillings

Depending on the age of the child, the degree of destruction of the teeth and thus the medical indication, there is a clear recommendation for filling therapy from the pediatric dentist.

After the dentist has removed the caries, he uses a tooth filling to preserve the teeth, which closes the hole in the tooth structure. This filling prevents caries from forming again. It also prevents the development of toothache, because the nerve endings of the tooth are well protected from external stimuli (e.g. cold, heat, etc.). .

children crowns

Small to medium-sized tooth defects can be repaired with filling materials. Sometimes teeth are destroyed to such an extent that filling therapy is no longer possible and sufficient. The tooth can then be fitted with a prefabricated milk crown to keep the tooth stable in the oral cavity from a functional point of view. The children’s crowns are usually made of medical grade stainless steel. However, they are easily accepted by children. For those who do not want silver teeth, there are also white, but more expensive versions.

placeholder

Milk teeth have a very important function as a placeholder for the permanent teeth. An early loss of milk teeth is often accompanied by a lack of space in the permanent dentition and difficulties in breaking through the permanent teeth. In addition, functional, linguistic and aesthetic problems arise. If a child has to forego isolated milk teeth prematurely, be it due to an accident or caries, placeholders come into play. They keep the space free for the advancing permanent teeth.

Depending on the findings, the following variants are offered

Fixed placeholders
Removable placeholders
children prostheses

Local anesthetic

Local anesthesia is the best way for some children to do dental restorations. Especially in the case of very small children with extensive destruction of the deciduous teeth (bottle caries) and in the case of children unwilling to treatment with many very severely destroyed teeth, tooth restoration in a session with local anesthesia makes sense due to a lack of cooperation.
After a detailed preliminary examination by a pediatrician and a consultation with one of our experienced anesthetists, we carry out these treatments.

We initiate general anesthesia in our small patients – if possible – as in adults, by injecting an anesthetic drug into a superficial vein. Since many children are terrified of needles, local anesthesia at the injection site ensures that the anesthesia is almost painless.

If such a procedure is not possible, the child can also inhale medication through a mask and falls asleep quickly.

Sedation / sedation

Sedation can be recommended for young, uncooperative or anxious children and for unpleasant interventions. In these cases, young children are given a calming juice. It is carried out under the supervision of our experienced anesthesiologists and is absolutely harmless. The sedative – our “magic juice” – is a medication (Dormicum) that calms your child, makes it a little tired, sometimes funny, and greatly reduces anxiety. This enables us to make the surgical procedure for your child as stress-free as possible.
