Pediatric Dentistry at "Varshavsky" Dental Center in Kyiv

Pediatric dentistry is a specialized branch of medicine focused solely on young patients. The use of "adult" therapeutic methods is excluded here. Tooth treatment in children is carried out considering the pain threshold of the growing body, as well as the psychoemotional state of the patient. Pediatric dentists use alternative materials and products. Therefore, it is crucial for the oral health of your son or daughter to be overseen by a pediatric dentist. The doctors at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center provide the following services with a high level of responsibility:

Treatment of caries in children. The most demanded service. Treatment of surface caries in children does not require anesthesia. For moderate and deep caries, our doctors use safe and effective anesthetics. Certified light-cured composite materials are used for dental fillings, matched to the color of children's natural enamel.
Pulpitis treatment. The "Varshavsky" Dental Center on Vinohradar practices pulpitis therapy in a single visit, using vital amputation technique. This procedure allows removal of the affected part of the pulp located under the crown portion of the tooth, without affecting its root segment. This approach helps maintain nourishment and tissue development of the tooth.
Gingivitis treatment. Gingivitis therapy always begins with identifying the cause of inflammation. In most cases, the problem is resolved by removing plaque and tartar. Anti-inflammatory therapy helps alleviate unpleasant symptoms in children. Vitamin therapy, proper daily routine, and balanced nutrition play a significant role in treating gingivitis in children.
Periodontitis treatment. Surgical treatment is rarely necessary for children with early signs of periodontitis. In most cases, pediatric dentists remove supra and subgingival hard deposits. Antiseptic treatment and anti-inflammatory drugs assist in treating gum inflammation.
Periodontitis treatment. In cases of caries complications, the "Varshavsky" Dental Center doctors in Kyiv employ a comprehensive approach. Treatment involves both mechanical and manual processing of the affected periodontium, along with medication therapy. The entire process is painless for the child and reduces the risk of recurrence of inflammation.
Professional teeth cleaning for children. We recommend visiting a dental hygienist for professional cleaning at least twice a year. The doctor removes plaque and tartar from children's teeth using special compounds and brushes with various bristle types. Interdental spaces are cleaned with dental floss. After the procedure, the child's teeth are coated with a remineralizing agent.
Fissure sealing. Painless fissure sealing at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center is one of the most effective preventive measures against future caries development in children. The procedure takes a very short time and does not require anesthesia. Fissures of children's teeth are covered with a sealing agent and fixed using a safe ultraviolet lamp.
Teeth fluoridation in children. Fluoridation of primary teeth in our clinic can be performed separately or in conjunction with caries treatment. The essence of the procedure lies in treating the teeth enamel with a special compound, which helps protect the child from recurring caries and reduces enamel sensitivity.
Restoration of primary teeth. This dental service may be required in cases of tooth trauma or deep carious damage. The doctors at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center on Vinohradar use advanced techniques for high-quality and effective restoration of children's teeth. The method of problem-solving is determined after a detailed diagnosis.
Temporary dentures for children. If it is not possible to preserve the primary tooth, our clinic's doctors recommend using temporary dentures. A strong and attractive temporary prosthesis will replace the primary tooth for a certain period, "insuring" the child against further bite problems. High-quality and safe materials are used for prosthesis fabrication, and the child experiences no discomfort during installation and quickly adapts to it.
Bite correction. Our orthodontists assist children with bite and dental arch pathologies using modern appliances, caps, and trainers. Various bracket systems are applied in the dental clinic, allowing correction of even serious malformations. An individual therapeutic plan is developed for each child, enabling a prompt solution to the problem.
Tooth extraction. Removal of primary teeth at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center in Kyiv is performed in cases where their natural shedding is complicated or when the condition of primary teeth may lead to problems. Our surgeons carry out a delicate procedure without pain or shock for your child.
Tongue and lip frenulum plastic surgery. Our clinic employs the most painless and minimally traumatic method of frenulum plastic surgery. Our surgeons perform the procedure very carefully - the child does not feel discomfort or pain during the procedure and recovers quickly after the operation.

Treatment under Anesthesia

Children react more acutely to painful sensations than adults. Therefore, treating moderate, deep caries, and its complications without anesthesia in the case of young patients is impossible.

In our Dental Center located in the "Varshavsky" microdistrict, children undergo painless and comfortable treatment. Injections of anesthesia, which last for 20-40 minutes, allow patients to be relieved of unpleasant memories. Children tolerate anesthesia without nausea and dizziness.

Over decades of work, our pediatric dentists have accumulated significant experience in interacting with children. Experts patiently prepare the child for the upcoming sensations so that they are not frightened by the "freezing" effect and numbness of the gums.

Thanks to the use of a two-stage numbing technique, the child doesn't feel pain even during the administration of the anesthetic. The doctor applies a gel with lidocaine to the gums, administers the medication after a few minutes. Our doctors have mastered the art of administering injections skillfully - the child doesn't even notice the syringe and doesn't have time to become scared.

FAQ

1. How to prepare a child for a visit to the dentist?

If the child is very young, we recommend scheduling the dental visit in the morning. Tell the child about meeting our dentist as an exciting event, like meeting a friend. Use the dentist's name. Avoid saying "don't be afraid" or "you'll have to endure" – these words might make them more anxious. Don't go into specifics about what will happen in the dentist's office – the dentist will determine what your child needs to know before the procedure, especially if it involves fillings or tooth extraction. Bring your child's favorite toy to the clinic – it will make them feel emotionally more comfortable.

2. Is it necessary to treat baby teeth? What are the differences between treating baby teeth and permanent teeth?

Since baby teeth decay much faster than permanent teeth, treating them is essential. Otherwise, your child may lose teeth and develop bite problems. Baby teeth are delicate, so their treatment at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center is conducted using gentle techniques based on modern technology.

3. Is there any harm from treatment under anesthesia?

We can confidently state the safety of anesthesia during treatment at the "Varshavsky" Dental Center in Kyiv, as we only use certified anesthetic agents that come directly from manufacturers. After the procedure, the child feels well, and the "numbness" wears off in 20-40 minutes (depending on the dosage), leaving no unpleasant after-effects.

4. How to choose the right oral hygiene products for children?

Essential items for children's oral hygiene are a toothbrush and toothpaste. Our doctors recommend choosing a children's toothbrush with soft, short bristles (approximately 2 cm) in two rows of tufts, a small narrow head, and a long handle. Toothpaste should be purchased according to the child's age (indicated on the packaging).

5. Do baby teeth remain in adults?

The presence of baby teeth in an adult is a rare but real phenomenon. Otherwise, these teeth are referred to as "persistent." The fate of such a tooth can only be determined after analyzing the results of an X-ray. The X-ray will help the dentist determine if there are permanent tooth buds and whether the roots of the baby tooth are resorbing. If the roots are healthy, the tooth is also fine, and there are no signs of permanent tooth development, the baby tooth is not removed.

How to Avoid Visiting a Pediatric Dentist

To visit a pediatric dentist for preventive purposes, it is recommended to do so at least once every six months. Preventing oral cavity diseases in children and minimizing extensive contact with a pediatric dentist can be achieved through several simple measures:

Start oral hygiene for your child as soon as the first tooth appears;
Replace your child's toothbrush at least once every three months;
If possible, apply fluoride to your child's teeth and consider fissure sealing;
Limit consumption of carbohydrate and polysaccharide-containing foods (sweets, baked goods);
Include solid vegetables and fruits in your child's daily diet: they help remove food debris from between teeth and improve saliva production.

If you notice any uncomfortable symptoms (tooth sensitivity, enamel discoloration, spots on teeth, significant buildup of plaque, pain and discomfort while chewing), or if your child complains about such symptoms, do not delay seeking medical attention. You can schedule an appointment with us by phone or online.
