MINI-COURSE: Pediatrics and Pediatric Dentistry: how do they work together?
💡 Why is this course key for your dental practice?
A dentist doesn't just treat teeth: they accompany critical stages of child development.
In many cases, the first signs of nutritional deficiencies, sucking problems, or neurodevelopmental disorders can manifest in the oral cavity.
This course will enable you to understand how pediatrics complements your clinical perspective to:
- Identify warning signs in early stages.
- Know when and how to refer to a pediatrician or work collaboratively.
- Intervene opportunely in the child's orofacial and functional development.
TOPICS
Child nutrition and iron deficiency
Recognize oral and systemic manifestations of nutritional deficiency and learn how to guide parents or coordinate with the pediatrician.
Lactation, Premature Babies, and Swallowing Disorders
Analyze how difficulties in sucking affect facial growth and oral function, and what strategies the dentist can implement in partnership with pediatricians.
Neurodevelopmental milestones
Learn to interpret motor and neurological developmental milestones to detect signs that may influence craniofacial growth and masticatory function.
