In this process, all dental stones are cleaned and irregularities on the root surface are eliminated.
Pedodontics (Pediatric Dentistry)
Child dental health. aim; It is to prevent the formation of caries, to treat the initial caries, and to keep the faster-decaying milk teeth in the mouth for as long as necessary. Early extracted milk teeth cause crowding in permanent teeth.

These areas are quite narrow and are usually the places where caries begin because food gets stuck and cannot be cleaned. A special flowable filling material is used to prevent the accumulation of food and microorganisms in these areas and, accordingly, caries.
Fluoride Applications:
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and prevents mineral loss. It also ensures the strengthening (remineralization) of weakened tooth enamel where caries have begun to form. Fluoride also prevents acid production by bacteria that cause tooth decay. When a balanced diet and good oral hygiene are combined with fluoride, the risk of tooth decay is further reduced.
