Dental care begins with the eruption of your child’s first tooth in the oral cavity which is at the age of six months
Does your child suffer from any of these problems?
Decayed black milk teeth?
Pus filled, pimple associated with the decayed teeth?
Over retained milk teeth?
Crowded teeth?
Thumb sucking
Pencil eating habits?

At DR DANG’S DENTAL EXCELLENCE, we have solution of every dental problem your child has. Saving a milk tooth is as important as saving the permanent teeth because the milk teeth maintain the space best for the eruption of the underlying permanent teeth.
Filling and restoring the milk teeth becomes important as to provide an infection free healthy environment for the new permanent teeth which are developing right below the milk teeth.
Procedures undertaken include tooth colored fillings, root canal treatment of milk teeth, habit breaking appliances, myofunctional appliances (growth modification), and early detection of teeth malalignment hence corrected with wire and braces treatment.
Prevention is better than cure and hence we bring for your child the dental sealants and fluoride application. Dental sealants seal the deep pits and fissures present on the chewing surface of the permanent teeth, preventing the food from being stuck and hence protecting the teeth from decay.
Fluoride application is another method of providing the teeth with a protective mineral covering as fluoride has anti cariogenic activity.
Hygiene counseling: A proper dental care regime, right way of brushing and the right dietary habits for your child is the best gift you can gift him. Fix up an appointment to know more on as to how dental caries can be prevented with a good dental routine of your child.
Nursing Bottle Caries
Nursing bottle caries are tooth decay of the deciduous ("baby") front teeth caused by parents allowing a toddler to suck on a bottle or sippie cup of milk or juice frequently during the day - the child typically walks around the house with the bottle or sippie cup in her hand. Allowing the child to have the bottle or cup in the bed for naps or nighttime sleep is also very common, with the same disastrous effects on the soft enamel of the first teeth. Nursing caries sometimes is produced in breastfed babies and toddlers who are allowed to nurse very frequently, but this is very unusual in my experience.
The decay is caused by erosion of the soft teeth by acid which is produced by mouth bacteria feeding on the constant wash of sugary milk, juice, or soda1. Once the harder outer enamel is breeched, the decay spreads rapidly and the teeth may simply rot off at the gumline.
Dental caries (cavities) are actually infections of the teeth with mouth bacteria. If the "rotten" teeth are not treated, the infection will likely spread to the permanent teeth when they erupt.
Treatment consist of restoring the decayed teeth with tooth colored filling material, root canals and caps if required, so as to restore the function as well as esthetics of your child’s precious milk teeth. Thus providing a healthy environment for the underlying developing permanent teeth.
