Dental Services for Kids

Welcome to our kid-friendly dental care clinic! We understand that going to the dentist can be a new and sometimes stressful experience for children. That is why Artlife Dental Studio is dedicated to making their visits comfortable and enjoyable. Our team is here to keep your child’s teeth healthy and strong with a variety of specialised services designed specifically for them.

Fillings

When your child has a cavity—a small hole in the tooth caused by decay—we use a filling to repair it. This way we prevent further cavity formation and keep their teeth strong and healthy. We use advanced materials that closely match the natural properties of your child’s teeth, ensuring the filling blends seamlessly and works effectively. This ensures that your child’s dental treatment is top-notch and effective, a hallmark of our Best Dental Services.

Pulpotomy (Root Canal for Kids)

Pulpotomy/ pulpectomy can also be understood as a kid’s root canal. It is done when the inside of a tooth (called the pulp) becomes infected or injured, usually due to extensive decay. We carefully clean out the infected area and then seal the tooth. This saves your child’s teeth from having to be pulled out and keeps their smile intact.

Space Maintainers

Space maintainers are custom-made dental appliances designed to hold the space left by a lost baby tooth, ensuring that surrounding teeth don’t move into that space. This helps guide the permanent tooth into its correct position when it comes in, preventing future dental problems. Trust our Best Dental Specialists in Islamabad to create the perfect space maintainer for your child, an essential component of our Premium Dental Services.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride treatment is a simple and effective way to protect your child’s teeth from cavities. Due to extensive consumption of junk food, kid’s teeth become weak. Therefore, we apply a safe amount of fluoride directly to the teeth, this strengthens the enamel, helping the tooth to rebuild itself making it more resistant to decay. This preventive measure is a key part of our commitment to provide your child a premium dental service.

Myth Buster: Is Fluoride Harmful?
There’s a common myth that fluoride is a harmful chemical, but this is not true when used correctly. Fluoride is a natural mineral found in water, soil, and various foods. In dental treatments, fluoride is used in controlled, safe amounts to protect teeth from decay. The benefits of fluoride in preventing cavities are well-documented, and it has been safely used in dental care for decades. Rest assured, our fluoride treatments are safe, effective, and an essential part of keeping your child’s smile healthy.

Extractions

Sometimes a tooth has to be removed, such as when it’s badly decayed or causing other problems. We extract the tooth carefully to lessen the pain and avoid further issues, discussing options for replacing it or preserving your child’s dental health.

FAQs

No! We use numbing flavoured gel as a local anaesthetic to make the treatment less traumatising for the kids. Your child will not feel any pain during the procedure. They may sense a bit of pressure, but it’s short and generally not uncomfortable.

If your child’s teeth hurt, the pain isn’t relieved by medicine, or they have trouble eating due to tooth pain, a filling will not be enough. As our dentist does not recommend pulling out baby teeth because this hinders the eruption of their permanent teeth, causing a crooked smile. Therefore, if a cavity has reached the inner part of the tooth, causing pain or infection , a pulpotomy might be necessary. This treatment is carried out under general anaesthesia so it is not painful for the child.

Milk teeth have a specific time to fall. If they fall too early or are extracted due to decay, the surrounding teeth will start to shift, causing alignment problems. Space maintainers hold the gap open so new teeth can come in correctly, preventing future alignment issues.

Yes. Fluoride treatment is safe and effective for children. It’s specifically formulated for kids and helps guard their teeth against cavities without any risk, making it a key part of our kid’s dental care.

Tooth extractions are generally discouraged. But if you think your child needs an extraction we recommend discussing the case with our Dental specialists. They will guide you of any other possible treatment option, aftercare and any follow-up treatment necessary to ensure your child’s mouth heals well, providing the best dental services.
