Caries prevention in children is the most important and effective area of pediatric dentistry. Damage to children's teeth causes both physical pain and psychological trauma, which is why prevention is always better than treatment. BadamDent offers a comprehensive preventive programme for children. Key methods: 1) Fissure sealing — covering the small anatomical grooves (fissures) of posterior molars and premolars with a special clear protective material (Helioseal, Clinpro Sealant). These grooves are where caries most often starts because bacteria get trapped there and a toothbrush cannot clean them. Sealing is a painless 15–20 minute procedure that reduces caries risk by 70–80%. 2) Fluoridation — application of fluoride varnish (Duraphat, Bifluorid) or gel to the tooth surface. Fluoride strengthens enamel and increases resistance to caries. Repeated every 3–6 months. 3) Remineralisation — restoration of weakened enamel with calcium and phosphate pastes (GC Tooth Mousse, Curodont). Can reverse early (white spot) caries. 4) Dietary consultation — reducing sugar and acidic drinks, recommending healthy alternatives. 5) Hygiene education — for both child and parents. 6) ICDAS-based diagnostics — detecting caries at its earliest stage. These simple and painless procedures completely eliminate the need for long, painful treatment later. Check-ups every 6 months. The ideal treatment age window is 6–12 years.
