Child-Friendly Pediatric Dental Clinic in Nairobi

Pediatric dentistry is an area of dentistry that caters to the unique oral health needs of children from infancy to adolescence. As children’s teeth and jaws develop, they are prone to a range of dental problems. If these problems are left untreated, they can lead to pain, discomfort, and even affect their ability to eat, sleep, and focus in school. That’s why dental care for children is so important. 

Our pediatric dental clinic provides expert care for children up to 14 years of age, focusing on prevention, detection, and treatment of dental issues. With our gentle and child-friendly approach, we make dental visits a positive experience for your little ones, setting a foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.

Common Dental Issues in Children

Children’s developing teeth and jaws are particularly vulnerable to various dental problems that can affect their overall development and well-being if left unchecked. These issues can cause pain, difficulty eating, speech problems, and even affect a child’s self-esteem and confidence. Some of the most common dental issues include: 

  • Tooth decay and cavities
  • Gum disease
  • Misaligned or crooked teeth
  • Thumb-sucking or pacifier habits
  • Dental injuries and trauma

Maintaining excellent oral health is essential to your child’s general health and well-being. When you take your child to a pediatric dentist regularly, you can prevent these common dental issues from occurring or effectively manage them if they do arise.

Our Pediatric Dental Services

At Arrow Dental, we believe that every child deserves a healthy, happy smile. Our pediatric dental services are designed to help your child develop good oral hygiene habits and address any oral health issues that may arise.

  • Comprehensive Oral Examinations: Regular dental checkups allow our pediatric dentists in Nairobi to monitor your child’s oral development and identify any potential issues early on. This helps ensure their teeth and jaws are growing properly and lays the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.
  • Professional Cleanings and Fluoride Treatments: Our gentle, child-friendly full mouth cleanings remove built-up plaque and tartar, while fluoride applications strengthen enamel and protect against cavities. This is important for maintaining your child’s bright, healthy smile.
  • Sealants to Protect Against Cavities: Dental Sealants are a clear, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of your child’s teeth. This creates a barrier sealing off the crevices and grooves on the teeth hence preventing development of cavities. 
  • Habit-Breaking Appliances for Thumb-Sucking or Pacifier Use: If your child has developed a thumb-sucking or pacifier habit, we provide specialized devices designed to gently break the habit and ensure proper jaw and tooth development.

 

  • Tooth-Colored Fillings for Cavities: When cavities occur, we provide natural-looking, tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with your child’s teeth and smile. These fillings are durable and are an effective option of treating decay while maintaining the integrity of the tooth structure.

  • Dental Crowns for Severely Decayed or Damaged Teeth: If your child’s teeth have extensive damage or decay, we offer dental crowns to fully restore function and appearance. These strong and durable custom-made caps fit over the entire visible portion of the tooth.

  • Root Canal Therapy and Pulpotomies: In cases where tooth decay or infection has reached the inner pulp of the tooth, we can perform root canal treatment or a pulpotomy to remove the damaged tissue and save the tooth.

  • Tooth Extractions and Space Maintainers: If your child’s tooth cannot be saved, our gentle and effective extraction techniques ensure your child’s comfort. We then work to maintain the proper spacing for their adult teeth using custom-fitted space maintainers.

  • Early Interceptive Orthodontics: Our pediatric dentists offer orthodontic care to address misalignment or bite issues in the early stages of development. This helps in guiding the growth and positioning of your child’s teeth and jaws, reducing the need for more extensive orthodontic treatment later on.
  • Fixed Braces and Invisalign Treatment: For mild to severe orthodontic problems, we provide both traditional metal braces and the discreet Invisalign system to gradually straighten your child’s teeth, improve the overall alignment of the jaw and enhance their bite.
  • Dental Bonding and Veneers: Minor cosmetic issues like chipped, cracked, or discolored teeth can be effectively concealed with tooth-colored bonding or thin veneers, enhancing the overall appearance of your child’s smile.
  • Teeth Whitening: As your child gets older, we can provide safe, gentle teeth whitening treatments to help them feel confident about the appearance of their smile.
  • Other cosmetic procedures, such as dental implants, gum contouring, and smile design, can also be used to improve the appearance of the smile and boost confidence.
