Pediatric Dentistry Treatment
The pediatric dentists at Dr. Paul’s Dental Clinic, Dubai specialise in the best-in-class treatment plans specially formulated bearing in mind, the needs of children and teens:
Dental Examination for Infants and Toddlers
We recommend the first dental visit of your child be when the first tooth erupts and no later than when the child is 1 year old. During the first visit, we first perform an intra-oral examination which includes checking the soft tissues of the mouth, the throat, the tongue, and the gums. This is followed by an extra-oral examination of the head and neck for facial and jaw asymmetry. We also guide you regarding oral development, a proper oral hygiene routine, non-nutritive sucking habits like finger or thumb sucking and pacifier use, teething, proper diet, and injury prevention. Our advice is to schedule a routine dental checkup in Dubai, at least once every 6 months.

FAQs
My child has bad breath. What should I do?
Bad breath even after proper brushing and tongue cleaning may be a sign of an oral or systemic infection. A persistent malodour problem as it is called, needs to be checked by the pedodontist.
How do I soothe my child during teething?
For teething relief, give the child a chilled fruit or vegetable cut or a chilled teething toy to chew on. You can also massage the gums. Use a cold washcloth to soothe the sore gums and gently wipe off the drools.
What is the ‘ugly duckling’ stage?
It is a stage of dental development between ages 8-11 years. A space occurs between the upper front teeth (midline diastema) when the central and lateral incisors are tipped laterally due to pressure applied by the erupting canine. However, there is no need to worry as it is self-correcting.
What to do if my child has a sudden toothache?
Let your child rinse his/her mouth with warm salt water. You can give your child over-the-counter pain medications/paracetamol appropriate for his age and weight. It is important though, that you schedule an appointment with his pedodontist at the earliest.
How can I protect my child’s teeth from a sports injury?
Custom-made mouthguards can be made by the pediatric dentist. Alternatively, you can buy them from sports goods stores, however, they may not fit very well.
How do I select my child’s diet to ensure healthy teeth?
Make sure to provide your child with a balanced diet. Include fresh fruits and veggies, milk, cheese, meat, eggs, and healthy carbohydrates. Limit sugary items and include them along with their meals as opposed to in between meals. Your pediatric dentist can assist you with the selection of the right food items.
My infant always sucks his thumb. Should I worry?
Thumb sucking in infants and toddlers is often seen as a coping mechanism that they utilise to comfort themselves when bored, tired, or upset. There is no harm in it as they usually outgrow the habit in a few years. However, if your child’s thumb-sucking habit has gone beyond four years of age, then you should seek the help of your pediatric dentist.
When should I start brushing my child’s baby teeth
You should start brushing your child’s teeth when the first tooth erupts using a rice-sized smear of toothpaste. Till then, you should use a wet soft cloth to clean the gum pads.
What is baby bottle syndrome?
It is a type of decay that occurs in very young children. It is usually seen in children who take bottles of milk or juices (with sugar in it) during their bedtime. Prolonged exposure to sugar aids the harmful bacteria in the mouth, which produces acids that cause demineralisation of the teeth.
