Paediatrics

At ConfiDental Studios we understand the importance of pleasant dental experiences at a young age. With this in mind, we make every dental visit as enjoyable and educational as possible for our little patients.
 
We encourage frequent dental check-ups as early as possible in order to become accustomed to dental treatment as well as to assist in early prevention, detection and treatment of dental problems.

 

General Anesthetic


Occasionally due to previous dental trauma, it is not possible to carry out dental treatment under local anesthetic. In these cases, the best and sometimes the only option is to treat the patient under general anesthetic in a theatre facility.   General Anesthetic may also be required in cases where a medical condition necessitates it or extensive dental work is required at a young age.

 

 

 

 

Sealants


Often on premolar or molar teeth, deep pits and fissures exist which cannot be adequately cleaned with a toothbrush. In these instances, sealants are recommended.   Sealants are white or clear resins that are applied to deep and inaccessible pits and fissures in order to prevent food and bacteria from accumulating in them.   Sealants are a safe and effective means of reducing cavities.
