Opis

Children represent the future and ensuring their physical, social, emotional, language and cognitive development should be the priority. A child's oral health can highly affect their overall health because the mouth is the gateway to a person's overall health. The attitude towards dental care begins taking shape in early childhood, and a pediatric dentist can help ensure those attitudes are pleasant ones. Also, the discolored, damaged or missing teeth may hurt children's self-esteem and social development making them afraid to smile or subjecting them to teasing. Oral health is related to health-related quality of life and a pediatric dentist plays an important role in overall development of a child.
