Clinique Dentaire de Meyrin

Dental treatments for children

A child often dreads the appointment to the dentist out of worry, fear or even anxiety from the dentist.

This fear can be explained by a bad experience lived in the past, by the unknown or the fact of not knowing the progress of the session, or by the dreaded "bite".

But the fear of the dentist is not innate! The dentist will immediately welcome the young patient in a warm and pleasant way to put him at ease with the environment and the healthcare team.

If the latter shows signs of worry or fear, our practitioner and his assistant will then take the time to identify the source of his fear in order to really show him how the session will unfold and to try to appease him.

After having gained his trust, the dentist will always operate as follows with the child: "explain - show - do" ; the gesture is first explained clearly to the young person

patient, he is then shown how the practitioner will go about performing it, to finally implement this, while observing whether the operation does not inflict discomfort or pain. If the child fears "the bite", our practitioners of the clinique Dentaire de Meyrin systematically apply an anesthetic gel on the gum so that the breach of the latter by the needle is no longer felt at the time of anesthesia.

For certain situations, the Wand Plus system offers an ideal alternative for children.

Indeed, anesthesia with this modern technology is done without syringe and without pain with the assistance of a computer. The main advantages are as follows :

  1. Anesthesia without numbing the tongue, lip and cheek

  2. Constant diffusion rate of the anesthetic product (below the pain threshold)

  3. No needle deflection thanks to a rotary injection technique
