Some may believe that primary teeth are not important since they eventually fall out, but in reality, their health directly impacts the development of permanent teeth. At LA RIMAR CLINIC, we emphasize to our patients that neglecting children’s oral health can lead to early cavities, speech issues, and difficulty eating. Therefore, early and preventive care plays a crucial role in avoiding future complications.
Fissure sealants are a thin protective layer applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to prevent cavities. These sealants help block bacteria and food particles from accumulating in deep grooves, reducing the risk of decay and providing long-term protection for several years.
PRR is both a preventive and therapeutic solution, used when there are early signs of minor decay without the need to remove a significant portion of the tooth.
At LA RIMAR CLINIC, we recommend stainless steel crowns when decay is extensive and cannot be repaired with regular fillings. These crowns provide strong protection for primary teeth until they fall out naturally.
When decay reaches the nerve of a primary tooth, our specialists at LA RIMAR CLINIC either remove the infected part or perform a complete nerve removal and clean the root canals. These treatments prevent infections and severe pain while preserving the tooth until its natural replacement, preventing misalignment of permanent teeth.
LA RIMAR CLINIC recommends the first visit between 6 months and 1 year of age, or when the first primary tooth appears, to detect any early issues and help the child become comfortable with the dental environment.
Yes, neglecting cavities in primary teeth can lead to pain, infections, and negative effects on permanent teeth.
No, the procedure is painless and quick, as the protective material is applied to the teeth without the need for drilling or anesthesia.
