Keeping Kids’ Smiles Healthy

Root canal therapy for children helps ease pain, stop infection, and save teeth essential for proper growth and development.

Do Children Ever Need Root Canals?

Sometimes. If a baby tooth or young permanent tooth is badly decayed or injured, a root canal can save it. Preserving the tooth helps your child chew comfortably, speak clearly, and keep space for adult teeth to grow properly. Without root canal treatment, the infection may spread, causing more pain and bigger dental problems later. 

Is Root Canal Treatment Safe for Kids?

Yes. Pediatric dentists use gentle techniques and safe anesthesia to make the procedure as stress-free as possible. A root canal quickly relieves discomfort, removes infection, and protects your child’s long-term oral health. Saving the tooth now avoids the need for more complicated treatments in the future. 

Comfort Foods for Healing Smiles

Following a root canal, tender gums need gentle foods. Serve pudding, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, or soft pasta. Skip crunchy chips, raw vegetables, or sticky treats. Soft options protect the treated tooth and make recovery smoother for your child.
