Paediatric dentistry and individual prophylaxis for children
Children should learn at an early age that oral hygiene is part of their daily routine. During individual prophylaxis, our trained staff colour the teeth to make plaque visible. Brushing techniques are explained. Fluoridation of the teeth and fissure sealing are part of paediatric prophylaxis. The costs for this are covered by statutory health insurance. Glass ionomer cement and plastic (composites) are used as filling materials. The best solution for the child is decided by the dentist in consultation with the parents.
Frequently asked questions about paediatric dentistry
How are children taught about dental hygiene?
For children and adolescents we offer individual teeth cleaning, a service provided by the health insurance companies. In some cases, e.g. there are additional private liquidations for children with multiband treatment. This will be clarified in advance.
How do I have prepare my child for the treatment?
The child should come for treatment with brushed teeth.
Do we have to bring something to the treatment?
You can bring your own oral hygiene products to discuss whether they are right or should be replaced if necessary.
How does such a treatment work?
Oral hygiene is clearly explained and practiced with our young patients. We also remove stains and as a last step the teeth get fluoridated.
Is my child during the treatment in pain?
No, we take great care that your child feels comfortable at all times during the treatment.
Dental sealants for children
The sealing of the first permanent molars in children is a standard service provided by health insurance companies and is free of charge for parents. If an extended sealing is necessary, there are additional costs for a small composite filling. Parents will also be informed about this in advance.
