They perform many different procedures, depending on each child’s needs and medical history.
The most common pediatric dental services include:

1. dental exams and cavity fillings

This can help prevent biting the tongue or the inside of the cheek or lip.
If your child had a tooth pulled, have your child bite gently on a gauze pad now and then.
Change the pad as it becomes soaked with blood.
Call your dentist if your child still has bleeding 24 hours after the surgery.

Make sure you wash your child’s teeth and mouth with a soft cloth frequently to keep them clean.
Begin to brush as soon as tolerated.
If your child has custody paperwork or the legal guardian is someone other than the biological or adoptive parent, documentation will need to be provided prior to the day of surgery.
