Pediatric Dentist in Kaushambi, Ghaziabad

Dr Urvashi Verma's Dental Clinic · Indirapuram, Ghaziabad

Sometimes the search for a pediatric dentist in Kaushambi, Ghaziabad, begins after a visit that went badly: tears, a clamped mouth and a treatment left unfinished. If that is your family, you are in good company, and it can be put right. Dr Urvashi Verma's Dental Clinic is in Ahinsa Khand 1, Indirapuram, not in Kaushambi, and Dr Urvashi Verma, who leads it, is an M.D.S Pedodontist. Working with anxious children is a central part of her training.

What is behind the fear

A child's fear usually has a simple source: a painful tooth, a sudden noise, a stranger's hands, or a story from a cousin. Some children are afraid of losing control. Others are picking up on a worried parent. Finding the reason matters, because it tells the doctor where to begin.

How a frightened child is helped

• Tell, show, do. Each instrument is named in child-friendly words, shown on a finger, and only then used in the mouth.
• A stop signal. A raised hand means pause. Children who feel in control tend to be braver.
• Small wins. The first goal might only be sitting in the chair. Treatment comes when the child is ready, unless pain makes it urgent.
• Distraction. Talking and counting help a child through the difficult few seconds.

What helps at home

Do not tell your child about your own bad dental memories. Do not use the dentist as a threat. Play at being dentists with a toy, counting teeth with a spoon. Afterwards, talk about how brave your child was, whether or not everything went to plan.
