Pediatric dentistry

Children and adults involved in sporting activities have a high risk of teeth and soft tissue injuries, which are prevented by the construction of special and unique for each individual, splints, that protect the violent impacts of the person with hard objects. These splints made of soft material are designed to be tolerated by the patients and do not make it difficult for them to carry out the activities. On the contrary, prefabricated or partially adaptable athletic splints are marketed but offer minimal protection and are poorly applied to the athlete’s mouth. Correspondingly, similar splints are made to treat bruise both in sleep and during the day, preventing from tooth wear, headache, and pain from temporomandibular joints.

Preventive dentistry at a very young age is very important for the subsequent course of oral health, because in addition to learning the right hygiene and nutrition habits, small interventions help prevent their destruction and make them resistant to decay factors attacks. Fluoridation of both neonatal and permanent teeth in combination with the preventive dental sealants of the posterior permanent teeth lead to teeth that are more resistant to dental caries either by reinforcement with fluoride in the first case or by restoring the constructional defects of the chewing surfaces to the second.
