Paediatric dentistry is a specialty that provides primary and comprehensive oral health care for infants and children through adolescence. Paediatric dentists are trained to care for a child teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the various stages of the child growth.
In addition to completing four years of dental school, paediatric dentists complete two additional years of residency training in dentistry for infants, children, and teens. Paediatric dentists also know how to examine and treat children in ways that make them comfortable and keep them at ease. In addition, paediatric dentists often use specially designed equipment and offices that cater to children.

A note on this articleThis is general information written for patients, not dental advice for your own mouth. Teeth, gums and medical histories differ, and so does what suits them, so please have a dentist examine you before deciding on any treatment. If something in your mouth is painful, bleeding or has been knocked out, ring us on (02) 9281 0007 rather than waiting.
