Paediatric Dentistry, or Pedodontics, is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the oral health of infants, children, and adolescents, including those with special needs. It encompasses preventive and therapeutic dental care, ensuring proper development of the teeth and gums during childhood. Pedodontists are trained to manage a child's behavior, guide dental growth, and prevent future oral health issues through education and tailored treatments. Emphasizing the importance of early dental care, the field promotes habits that ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles while addressing any unique dental concerns that arise in young patients.
