🦷 Pulpotomy in Lewisville: Gentle Root Canal for Baby Teeth
At Divine Dental in Lewisville, TX, we provide gentle and effective dental care for children including pulpotomies, a common pediatric procedure that helps save baby teeth affected by deep decay or injury.
A pulpotomy is like a mini root canal for kids. It treats the infected or inflamed pulp (soft tissue inside the tooth) without removing the entire tooth. This allows your child to keep their baby tooth until the adult tooth is ready to come in.
Saving the baby tooth is important for:
-
Chewing and eating comfortably
-
Proper speech development
-
Keeping space for adult teeth to grow in correctly
âť“ When Does a Child Need a Pulpotomy?
We may recommend a pulpotomy if:
-
Your child has a deep cavity close to the nerve
-
There’s infection or inflammation inside the tooth
-
We want to avoid early tooth loss
Early loss of a baby tooth can lead to alignment issues or crowding later on so preserving it can protect your child’s long term oral health.
👶 Comfort Focused Pediatric Dental Care
We know the dentist can feel scary for some kids. That’s why our team uses gentle techniques, kid friendly language, and a calm, supportive approach to make every visit a positive experience.
At Divine Dental, your child’s comfort is just as important as their care.
