Pedodontics is the department that deals with the healthy preservation and treatment of deciduous and permanent teeth of children aged 0-12. Pedodontics, also known as pediatric dentistry, offers preventive measures and treatments to prevent possible problems by monitoring the development of the mouth, teeth and jaw since infancy. The primary purpose of pedodontics, which deals with the oral and dental health of children, is to determine the source of the problems and to deal with the measures to prevent them with the cooperation of parents. The procedures applied for this purpose are called preventive dentistry. Preventive dentistry includes regularly checking teeth, regulating nutritional habits and applying correct oral care methods.
Pedodontists are called pediatric dentistry specialists. Pedodontists are people who specialize in this field for 4 years following 5 years of dentistry education. With the first dental examination to be performed by a pedodontist who specializes in guiding children's behaviors, your child's future traumatic experiences will be prevented.

The first milk teeth begin to erupt in about 6 months, and the 20 milk teeth in total are completed around the age of 2.5. After the first tooth erupts, pedodontic examination should be done between 6 months and 1 year of age. In this way, problems such as bottle or breastfeeding caries are prevented. The first dental examination is very important in terms of recommendations about the baby's nutrition and measures to be taken to protect dental health.
