What Does Pediatric Dentistry Do?
Education clinic
In the educational clinic, patient care is provided by students of dentistry and oral health who are in the final phase of their training. The students are supervised by a pediatric dentist.
Education
The Pediatric Dentistry section provides theoretical and practical education for the training of dentists and dental hygienists. In addition to student education, the graduate dentistry section offers a postgraduate master's degree in pediatric dentistry (dentist-pedodontist). The program is accredited by the NVAO and the EAPD.
Research
The Pediatric Dentistry section carries out scientific research. In addition to doctoral research and research projects in the context of education, the section also conducts research in international collaboration. Within the research, the emphasis is mainly on all kinds of aspects of the treatment of young children.
Patients
The pediatric dentistry department treats children aged 0 to 18 years. Sometimes the children are referred by their own dentist, but that is not always the case. Your child can also come to us without a referral from your own dentist. Together with the parents, we look for the most optimal treatment for the child.
