Dental check-ups in children

The dental check-up in children is a complete examination of the condition of the child’s mouth and teeth. It is recommended to start taking care of the oral health of the child as soon as the first milk tooth erupts.

The first check-up at the dentist can be carried out from the age of 3-4 years.

During the dental check-up, the dentist performs a visual examination of the child's mouth and checks the condition of the teeth and gums. He may also perform X-rays to check the condition of the bone and the presence of cavities under the baby teeth. The dentist can also advise on oral hygiene and caries prevention.
