Pedodontics is a sub-branch of dentistry that focuses on children. Pedodontists or pediatric dentists are dentists who specialize in the oral and dental health of children. Pedodontics aims to promote healthy oral care and treat dental problems in children, focusing on dental problems in childhood.

Pedodontists generally have received special training on topics such as children's dental development, teething process, oral hygiene habits, and nutritional habits. They also have expertise in identifying and treating tooth decay, crowding, trauma, and other oral health problems in children.

In pedodontics practice, children are provided with services such as dental cleaning, regular dental check-ups, dental protective applications, orthodontic evaluations and treatments. In addition, pedodontists often provide children with general education about toothbrushing habits, proper eating habits, and oral health.

In this way, pedodontics plays a role in preventing future dental problems by promoting healthy oral and dental care in children.
