About Us
Pediatric Dentistry
Paediatric dentistry is a specialized field that provides dental care for children. Paediatric dentists have additional training to meet the unique needs of infants, children, and adolescents. They focus on establishing good dental habits and ensuring proper oral hygiene from a young age. Paediatric dentists create a comfortable environment for children and use age-appropriate techniques and tools. Regular visits to a paediatric dentist help monitor dental growth, detect issues early, and provide necessary treatments. Sai Yashoda clinic specializes in paediatric dentistry, offering child-friendly amenities and a welcoming atmosphere. Paediatric dentistry plays a crucial role in shaping lifelong dental habits and maintaining healthy smiles for children.
About Us
Habit Counselling
- Thumb Sucking: Persistent thumb sucking can lead to dental problems, such as misalignment of teeth and changes in the roof of the mouth. Habit counselling aims to help children break this habit and prevent dental issues.
- Lip Biting: Lip biting can cause injuries to the lips and surrounding tissues. Paediatric dentists provide guidance and techniques to help children stop lip biting and promote healthier oral habits.
- Snoring: Snoring in children may indicate a sleep-related breathing disorder, such as sleep aponia. Paediatric dentists can evaluate the underlying causes and recommend appropriate treatments or referrals to specialists.
- Mouth Breathing: Chronic mouth breathing can affect the development of facial structures and oral health. Habit counselling focuses on identifying the cause of mouth breathing and providing interventions to encourage nasal breathing.
- Tongue Thrusting: Tongue thrusting refers to the habit of pushing the tongue against or between the teeth during swallowing. Paediatric dentists can assess the impact of tongue thrusting on dental alignment and provide guidance to correct the habit.
- Nail Biting: Nail biting can lead to oral health problems, such as chipped teeth or jaw discomfort. Habit counselling aims to help children overcome nail biting and promote healthier alternatives.
- Bruxism: Bruxism, or teeth grinding, can lead to dental wear and jaw discomfort. Paediatric dentists can identify the causes of bruxism and provide strategies to manage the habit and protect the teeth.

After Care
- Avoid eating or drinking for 1-2 hours: This allows time for any anaesthesia or numbing medication to wear off and prevents accidental biting or burning of the mouth.
- Monitor for discomfort or bleeding: If the child experiences any pain or bleeding after the dental procedure, provide appropriate pain relief as directed by the dentist and contact the dental clinic if necessary.
- Encourage gentle brushing and flossing: Maintain good oral hygiene by gently brushing the child’s teeth and gums. Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and follow the dentist’s recommendations for toothpaste.
- Follow prescribed medications: If the child has been prescribed any medications, such as pain relievers or antibiotics, ensure they are taken as directed by the dentist.
- Schedule a post-operative appointment: It is important to schedule a follow-up appointment with the paediatric dentist for evaluation and further instructions. This allows the dentist to assess the child’s healing progress and address any concerns or questions.
