Pediatric hygiene is a comprehensive professional preventive programme for children, starting from age 3 and recommended every 6 months. Children's teeth require special attention during development — the enamel is thin, sensitive to decay, and losing teeth after treatment is often problematic (baby teeth hold space for permanent ones). At BadamDent the pediatric hygiene process is as follows: our pediatric dentist Dr. Gunel Ismayilova has dedicated methodological training, and every procedure takes place in a playful atmosphere — with the “Tell-Show-Do” technique, the child first sees the instruments, understands what they do, and only then the procedure begins. This approach prevents the development of dental phobia later in life. The procedure includes: a detailed clinical examination, identification of at-risk areas, removal of plaque and soft biofilm with a soft brush or flat silicone tip (Airflow Plus with child-friendly erythritol powder — sweet to taste), checking interdental spaces, teaching parents correct brushing technique, discussing dietary and hygiene habits and applying a pediatric fluoride varnish (Duraphat or equivalent in various flavours — fruit, strawberry). When needed, fissure sealing or other preventive work is done in the same visit. The visit takes 30–45 minutes. After every visit the child receives a small reward — encouraging them to return positively. Regular hygiene reduces childhood caries by 80–90%.
