Health Issues:Root Canal Treatment for 3 year old kid
2008-04-07
Name: Radhika



My kid is 3 year 4 months old. He had nursing caries... and we got his teeth examined a bit late, as the doctor told us that they were just stains.

But now they have become worse. My kid has to undergo the root canal treatment. We took him to a Pedodontist for the first sitting, and my kid cried a lot because of pain. Doc had given him a local anesthesia, but he was scared and could not control it. The doctor has called us for the second sitting and I am trying to explain my kid that its not going to harm at all., but he is too small to understand it all. He is just scared of going to the doc again. PLEASE HELP ME ! HOW SHOULD I CALM HIM DOWN?

the doctor has told us that in case if he does not cooperate, we will have to giev him general anesthesia and do all the RCTs done.

How many kids undergo a Root canal treatment at this age? Has anybody on this board gone through this kind of situation?

PLEASE HELP!!

Hi Radhika,

Though I cannot help on this issue, Pls do let me know as why this problem occurs in children. Is it bcoz of brushing problem or sugar/chocolates/etc ? I have a 20 months old son and we brush his teeth twice a day and plan to avoid chocolates for him as long as possible.

thanks in advance.
