Pediatric Dentistry Konstanz
What Matters to Us in Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry for us means: treating and educating. We demonstrate in a practical way how oral hygiene and nutrition are connected.
Our goal is for your child to understand that brushing teeth is not a tedious chore, but a skill. We show tricks for the proper brushing technique and explain why baby teeth are so important as placeholders for the future permanent teeth. This way, we create a foundation together where fear doesn’t even arise.

Services for Children and Adolescents
It is important to us that children learn early how to keep their teeth healthy. That’s why we teach them in a playful way how proper oral care works and explain why healthy teeth are so important. This approach helps prevent dental problems such as cavities or misalignments from the very beginning.
We also involve the parents. We provide guidance on topics such as proper oral hygiene, tooth-healthy nutrition, and the sensible use of fluoride, so that you can support your child at home in the best possible way.
In our practice, children should experience visiting the dentist as something completely normal. We take our time, explain everything in a child-friendly way, and ensure they feel comfortable and without fear. During treatment, we can, for example, apply fluoride or sealants to make the teeth more resistant. Additionally, in our prophylaxis department, we practice proper tooth brushing with the children – in a relaxed atmosphere and with plenty of patience.
We place special emphasis on helping children overcome certain reservations and fears of the dentist and dental care in general. As parents ourselves, we know from personal experience how to handle the topic of dental health and care even for our youngest patients.
Baby Tooth Fillings and Pain-Free Anesthesia
The thought “They’re just baby teeth, they’ll fall out anyway” is unfortunately a common misconception. Baby teeth play a crucial role as placeholders. If they are lost too early due to cavities, neighboring teeth often tilt into the gap, leaving insufficient space for the permanent teeth later on, which can make orthodontic treatment necessary. That’s why we repair decayed baby teeth with the same care as permanent teeth.
To ensure the treatment remains completely stress-free for your child, we do everything possible to prevent pain from occurring in the first place. Before any necessary local anesthesia, we apply a special gel to the gums. It numbs the surface so that the actual “poke” is barely noticeable. We use child-friendly terms and explain each step to prevent fear from arising.
