Desensitization

We understand desensitization to mean introducing a child slowly and step-by-step to a treatment.

Desensitization generally makes sense for children who tend to be anxious, reserved, cautious or very young. These children frequently find it difficult to cope with too many new instruments and situations if they are confronted with them too quickly.

However, if children approach a treatment gradually in closely controlled examinations and professional teeth brushing sessions, they often are cooperative when treated later, because they already are familiar with many of the instruments and noises.

Particularly in the treatment of children, doctors should try to reduce radiation exposure by using the most modern radiography techniques.

There are many factors that help determine the risk of tooth decay. We learn the patient’s medical history regarding eating behaviour, brushing habits and use of fluoride. This provides us with important starting points.

You can hear tooth decay!

The tooth decay detective, “DIAGNOdent,” is an instrument that reliably helps detect tooth decay early.

Certain dental treatments should be absolutely pain-free. This is why an anaesthetic injection is also necessary in children’s dentistry.

Magic?

Hypnosis techniques are an effective instrument for keeping our young patients free of fear and pain during treatment. Hypnosis employs trance-like conditions.

Dear parents,
how often have you wished you could simply switch off at the dentist? Modern inhalation sedation can do just this, and your child can relax.

Sometimes teeth need to be treated while the child is unconscious. Particularly when young children’s teeth are seriously damaged, a general anaesthetic is the best way to eliminate tooth decay.
