Child-Friendly and Highly Effective: Pediatric Dentistry at the Alpstein Clinic
Dear Parents, Dear Visitors
Your child’s dental health is a precious asset that deserves special attention. Caries remains the most common chronic disease in childhood. However, many problems can be avoided with the right preventative care.
At the Alpstein Clinic, our goal is to provide children with personalized, gentle and effective dental care right from the beginning, helping them develop healthy smiles and strong, lasting permanent teeth.
Why is early prevention so important?
We recommend scheduling a dental consultation as soon as your child’s first primary tooth erupts. Baby teeth play a key role in the healthy development of the permanent dentition and therefore require special care. Regular dental check-ups help detect caries early and prevent future misalignments.
Tips for maintaining healthy children’s teeth in everyday life:
- Start brushing from day one: Help your child until they master the technique themselves.
- Reduce sugar: A low-sugar diet significantly reduces the risk of caries.
- Don’t forget to floss: Even young teeth need care between them.
- Visit the dentist regularly: Early detection allows for early treatment.
- Use pacifiers and thumb-sucking wisely: Prolonged sucking can lead to misaligned teeth.

Our mission is to make dental visits a positive experience. We use age-appropriate language and playful methods such as songs, child-friendly hypnosis and even a few magic tricks. This helps build trust and lays the foundation for lifelong oral health.
