What is Dental care?
Dental care is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases and disorders of the oral cavity. It includes the care of the teeth, gums and other tissues of the mouth.
Dental care is important for maintaining good oral health. It helps to prevent tooth decay, gum disease and other problems of the mouth. Good dental care can also help to improve your overall health.
There are many different types of dental care available. You can get dental care from your dentist, from a dental hygienist, or from a dental technician.

Dental care for kids
As kids grow, plan on routine dental checkups anywhere from once every 3 months to once a year, depending on your dentist’s recommendations. Keeping sugary foods in check, encouraging regular brushing and flossing, and working with your dentist will lead good dental health.
When Should Kids Start Brushing Their Teeth?
Good dental care begins before a baby’s first tooth appears. Just because you can’t see the teeth doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Teeth actually begin to form in the second trimester of pregnancy. At birth, your baby has 20 primary teeth, some of which are fully developed in the jaw.
A Dental Emergency?
The best thing to do if you experience a dental emergency is to contact your dentist or local hospital right away. It is important to seek professional help as soon as possible, as advanced dental treatments may be necessary. Your doctor or dentist can also provide you with tips on how to manage the pain until you are able to get immediate medical attention.
