Detaylı Bilgi

What is fissur sealant?

One of the most important methods for protecting the oral and dental health of children, fissure sealant application aim to prevent the decay-producing bacteria from penetrating the teeth deeper.

How is the fissur sealant applied?

In children, grooves on the tooth surfaces are covered with a protective gel for the fissure sealant application. This way, the grooves we call fissure are transformed into a flatter structure and reduces the accumulation of food waste in these areas. 

Is thumb-socking a big problem?

Eventually these habits may become a problem, and these behaviors need to stop once the child’s permanent teeth begin to emerge. The sucking action can actually cause your child’s teeth to misalign at that point. We can fit your child with a mouth appliance to help eliminate these behaviors.

As well as doing an oral examination, the dentist assesses the child’s growth and development and identifies any risk of dental decay, as well as educating the child (and parent) on brushing techniques and the importance of healthy nutrition on teeth.

Easy tips to be prepared

Kids can easily pick up on anxiety in their parents. If a child has any concerns, it’s important to explain that dental visits are a regular occurrence for everyone to help keep people healthy. Keep it matter-of-fact without using any negative words such as ‘pain’, ‘drill’ or ‘needle’.

How can children keep their teeth healthy?

It’s important to brush twice a day, but they generally need help to get the right technique – usually children need a parent’s help to brush and floss until they are seven or eight years of age.

Teach your child how to brush with a small, circular action while keeping the toothbrush angled at 45 degrees towards the gum line. Also, the child needs to start flossing once the teeth are touching – usually between the ages of two and three. Kids love a good routine so try to have teeth cleaning take place at the same time each day - for example after breakfast, and just before bed.

Also ensure your child has a variety of nutritious foods, particularly fruit and vegetables, and mainly drinks tap water, followed by milk. Try to avoid sugary or highly processed foods, and sugary drinks like juice or fizzy soda.
