Why do the children need to visit a dental clinic?

Pediatric dental care basically pays attention to the children from birth until adolescence. There is strong emphasis on the care of the deciduous  teeth of the babies which are responsible for developing biting and chewing habits, and proper production of speech.

            The need for pediatric dental care arises due to the facts that poor dental and oral hygiene may lead to the following problems:

a) Malnutrition

b) Traumatic and risky infections

c) Deficiency in communication due to poor speech development

d) Difficulty in the growth and development of facial and jaw bone.

e) Problems due to improper biting while consuming solid food.

Why are children so prone to dental diseases?

The very simple reason is that they are not conscious of maintaining the oral hygiene which is extremely necessary for the safe keeping of the general health as well.

If brushing is not regularly done in a proper manner, the food debris will accumulate in the gaps of teeth and will help the growth of bacteria, giving rise to gum diseases and dental decay problems.
