Dental treatment for children is the most neglected aspect of dentistry. Everyone thinks that the milk teeth will fall off, why bother about them. But the truth is oral health of a child up to 10-12 years paves the way for his future dental condition.  The milk teeth should be  maintained properly and treated as and when needed. A good oral habit has to be inculcated in an early age. So the child has less dental problems and doesn’t fear a visit to a dentist. Also his permanent teeth gets a favourable condition to grow and mature. Chances of cavities or mis-aligned teeth are reduced. Thus a good foundation is laid for his adult teeth.
