Oral hygiene and preventive care for children at the Gallant Clinic is a set of measures aimed at maintaining your child’s oral health and preventing the development of dental diseases. Regular hygiene and prevention are key to ensuring healthy teeth and gums, as well as establishing proper habits from an early age.

Benefits of oral hygiene and preventive care for children:

Disease prevention: Regular hygiene helps prevent cavities, gingivitis, and other dental problems.

Maintaining dental health: Professional cleaning supports the health of both baby and permanent teeth.

Establishing good habits: Teaching children proper oral hygiene helps instill lifelong healthy habits.

Improved aesthetics: Regular cleaning helps maintain the natural tooth color and fresh breath.

The oral hygiene and preventive care procedure includes:

Consultation with a pediatric dentist

The first stage involves examining the child’s oral cavity, assessing the condition of the teeth and gums, identifying any issues, and creating a prevention plan.

Ultrasonic cleaning

Removal of tartar and mineralized plaque using an ultrasonic scaler. The procedure is safe and painless for children.

Air-Flow cleaning

Abrasive cleaning of teeth with a sandblasting device. This method gently removes plaque that cannot be cleaned at home and can brighten teeth by several shades.

Tooth polishing

Polishing the teeth with a special paste containing zirconium micro-particles to achieve smoothness and prevent plaque buildup.

Oral hygiene education

The dentist teaches the child and parents proper home care techniques, including brushing methods and choosing the right toothbrush and toothpaste.

Preventive recommendations:

Brush regularly: Brush teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.

Balanced nutrition: Limit sugary foods and drinks.

Regular dental visits: Schedule preventive check-ups every 6 months for early detection and treatment of issues.

Testimonials

Ludmila Vasylenko

Excellent dentistry at a modern level! I have my teeth treated by Dr. Viktor Sushkov and get professional hygiene done every six months. He is a great specialist, and with him, I’m not afraid of dentists. My little nephew also calmly came for a check-up. Dr. Viktor Sushkov is a specialist who talks, explains, calms, and at the same time works quickly and professionally.

I am pleasantly impressed by the service and professional attitude. I'm confident that my children will always have only positive emotions from visiting the dentist (after the check-up by the pediatric dentist at your clinic). Thank you!
