Rise in Pediatric Dentistry
Tooth brushing is a daily ritual, but most parents don't realize that even the tiniest teeth need a lot of TLC! Now, the American Dental Association is reporting a "dramatic rise" in the number of preschoolers requiring surgery. Dentists are performing everything from fillings and root canals to crowns and extractions. Some hospitals even have months-long wait lists. The tooth decay seen is so severe that dentists are routinely treating more than 10 baby teeth at a time.
