Common Issues Just For Kids Dentistry"},"content":{"rendered":"<h3>Pediatric Dentistry Is Unique<\/h3>\n<p>Pediatric dentists had to go through\u00a0 specialized training for a reason, there are issues just for kids dentistry; certain dental problems that children face that adults do not.\u00a0 Some are more common than others, so we have compiled a list of four issues that a child may face through the various stages of teeth development.\u00a0 If you have any further questions or would like to schedule an appointment, <a href=\"https:\/\/redapplepediatricdentalteam.com\/contact-us\/\">contact us today!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>#1: Thumb sucking<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redapplepediatricdentalteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Thumb-sucking-baby.jpg\" alt=\"just for kids dentistry\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thumb sucking is common in most children, and if the habit ends early enough, there is no dental damage.\u00a0 On the other hand, if a child continues to suck their thumb after the age of five, it could result in improper teeth development.\u00a0 Luckily, if a child breaks the habit before permanent teeth settle in, their teeth will most often not be impacted.<\/p>\n<h3>#2: Tooth Decay<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redapplepediatricdentalteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/why-us.jpg\" alt=\"just for kids dentistry\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, a child&#8217;s teeth are not as strong as an adults and normally have 50% less enamel protecting their teeth.\u00a0 This means that cavities can form easier and can cause damage faster.\u00a0 So make sure to practice good brushing and flossing habits with your child and bring them in for regular visits to check for tooth decay!<\/p>\n<h3>#3: Teeth Grinding<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redapplepediatricdentalteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/ToddlerTeethGrinding.jpg\" alt=\"just for kids dentistry\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Grinding teeth is another habit that children form that is usually broken at an early age.\u00a0 Like thumb sucking, if it continues into later years, some damages can occur.\u00a0 A couple results of teeth grinding are chipped teeth or worn down enamel which could be problematic.\u00a0 Most often though your child will stop grinding their teeth before problems present themselves.<\/p>\n<h3>#4: Sensitive Teeth<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redapplepediatricdentalteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Dental_small.jpg\" alt=\"just for kids dentistry\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When a child has sensitive teeth, they can experience pain with extreme temperature changes.\u00a0 Tooth sensitivity can occur as a result of a new tooth coming in, a cavity forming, or improper brushing techniques.\u00a0 Regular visits to the pediatric dentist are key in helping prevent tooth sensitivity.<\/p>\n<p>For these reasons and many others, your child should be visiting a pediatric dentist on a regular basis.\u00a0 Unlike a regular dentist, we specialize in just for kids dentistry.\u00a0 Dr. Payam has the best skills to take care of your child&#8217;s teeth.\u00a0 <a
