Children’s Dentistry

About Pediatric Dentistry Pediatric dentistry focuses on the oral health of children from infancy through their teens. At ICDC, we have years of experience in taking care of children’s teeth, gums and mouth at various stages of their development and addressing dental needs of children.

Milk teeth start erupting as early as six months in most children and by 6-7 years of age till the age of 13 the milk teeth are replaced with permanent teeth. Lack of good oral hygiene may result in decay and diseases that may cause pain and complications that last a lifetime. Studies reveal that today dental caries is the most chronic childhood ailment among children aged 5-15 years. Early checkups help prevent cavities and tooth decay, which can lead to pain, trouble concentrating and other medical issues.
