Monitor Oral Health and Provide Risk Detection for Children
Comprehensive Pediatric Dentistry at QC Dental
At QC Dental, we understand the importance of establishing good oral health habits early in life. Our paediatric dentistry services are designed to provide specialized dental care for children from infancy through adolescence. Our experienced team is dedicated to creating a positive and friendly environment, ensuring that your child’s dental visits are comfortable and enjoyable. Among our many paediatric dental treatments, we offer the LM Activator, an innovative tool to support proper dental and jaw development.
What Is Paediatric Dentistry?
Paediatric dentistry focuses on the oral health of children, addressing their unique dental needs at every stage of development. It involves preventive care, early detection, and treatment of dental issues, as well as education to promote good oral hygiene habits. Our goal is to help your child maintain a healthy smile and develop a positive attitude toward dental care. Do you know children should come in for their first dental visits as early as 6 months old?
Key Paediatric Dentistry Services
Regular Check-Ups and Cleanings
Routine dental exams and cleanings are essential for maintaining good oral health. These visits help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent decay. We offer professional fluoride treatments to protect your child’s teeth.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are thin coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, providing a barrier against cavities.
Cavity Fillings
If your child develops a cavity, we use tooth-coloured fillings to restore the tooth and maintain a natural appearance.
Space Maintainers
When a baby tooth is lost prematurely, a space maintainer can help keep the space open for the permanent tooth to come in correctly.
Early Orthodontic Assessment
Early evaluation allows us to identify and address potential orthodontic issues before they become more severe.
Introducing the LM Activator
The LM Activator is a specialized orthodontic device designed to guide the development of your child’s teeth and jaws. It is particularly useful in addressing early orthodontic problems and promoting proper alignment.
Benefits of the LM Activator
Corrects Malocclusions
The LM Activator helps correct bite issues and misalignments, reducing the need for more extensive orthodontic treatment later.
Promotes Healthy Jaw Development
By guiding the growth of the jaw and teeth, the LM Activator supports proper facial development.
Non-Invasive
This appliance is removable and comfortable, making it easier for children to adapt to its use.
Improves Oral Function
Proper alignment of teeth and jaws can enhance chewing, speaking, and overall oral function.
