The patient's treatment options will be discussed by the dentist if
problems are found.

conditions of the periodontium which includes the periodontal
ligament, alveolar bone, gingiva and cementum.” - John Mankey
Riggs
Derived from Greek words:
"peri" - around
"odons" - tooth
DEFINITION
27. Early Civilization
Evidence dating back to 5000 BC reveals instances of periodontal
disease, as seen in the Royal Library of Ashurbanipal's clay tablets
detailing early civilization treatments.
In The Hippocratic Collection, Hippocrates attributed periodontal
disease to calculus accumulation, describing it as gums detaching
from teeth with a foul odor.
Aulus Cornelius Celsus, a Roman encyclopedist, concurred, labeling
periodontal disease a disease affecting the soft parts of the mouth.
HISTORY
28. HISTORY
Periodontal Disease in the 1800s

Riggs' disease, named after
American dentist John Riggs,
which is characterized as a

125. PEDODONTICS
WHAT IS
PEDODONTICS?
A pedodontist, also called a
pediatric dentist, is a dentist
who specializes in children’s
dental care. They must
complete additional
education and experience
beyond their general
dentistry degree.
ETYMOLOGY OF THE
WORD PEDODONTIST
Pedodontist is a word that was
used for some time to describe
the specialty of dentistry
devoted to the treatment of
children. "Pedia-"or "pedo"
means child or children, and "-
dontist" denotes one who
studies teeth.
ROLE OF A
PEDODONTIST
A pedodontist will also
work with the child’s parent
to educate how to ensure
their child performs a
proper oral hygiene routine,
and will also discuss
treatment plans for the
future.
126. HISTORY
In 1909, Minnie Evangeline Jordon, a dentist, opened
the first pediatric dental practice in the US, focusing
solely on kids. Her research and experience in oral
health paved the way for recognizing the importance
of children’s dental care.
127. PEDODONTICS IN THE
PHILIPPINES
Since 1988, a group of pediatric dentists with expertise from the US
and Europe has been dedicated to advancing the field of pediatric
dentistry in the Philippines. Their commitment led to regular meetings
where they planned, shared ideas, and expressed their vision to
establish a training program for pediatric dentistry. In 1990, they
joined forces with general dental practitioners and medical
professionals, aiming to create a collective effort involving various
healthcare stakeholders, including policymakers, educators, parents,
and young patients, to enhance overall healthcare for children.

136. PRIMARY TEETH
PRIMARY TEETH
Also known as baby teeth, milk
teeth, or deciduous teeth
Starts to emerge starting from
infancy to 2-3 years old
Most children have a total of 20
primary teeth which is replaced
by permanent teeth
137. FUNCTIONS OF PRIMARY TEETH
SPEECH AND LANGUAGE
DEVELOPMENT
-Teeth help children form certain sounds.
Losing teeth might result to difficulty
saying the words with letters “s,” “t,” “x,” “c,”
“z,” and other sounds.
138. FUNCTIONS OF PRIMARY TEETH
EATING OR CHEWING
-Primary teeth help children chew their
food properly, promoting better
digestion. Thus when children have
tooth decayed or abscessed teeth it
will be hard for them to intake foods
for good nutrition and bodies properly
139. FUNCTIONS OF PRIMARY TEETH
SERVES AS A PLACEHOLDER
-Primary teeth serve as maintainers until
permanent teeth replace them.
-The longer baby teeth are maintained,
the easier for permanent teeth to
emerge in proper alignment
140. ERUPTING
CHART
-The first tooth that grows is the
lower central incisor which erupts at
6-10 months followed by upper front
teeth at 11-12months
-primary tooth erupts from 6-33
months
141. SHEDDING
CHART
-The first tooth that shreds is the
upper and lower central incisor
which shreds at 6-7 years old
-Primary tooth shreds until 10-12
years old
142. Dental Cleanings
Regular cleanings are vital for
children since they consume more
sugar than adults and have poorer
oral hygiene habits.

Pulp therapy (pulpotomy) is the

becomes necessary for two reasons:
either as a result of extensive tooth

tooth injury.

Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are thin, plastic coatings
applied to children's teeth to stop the
development of cavities. They prevent
food debris and plaque from building up in
the natural grooves of the teeth and on
the chewing surface.
148. RELEVANCE OF
PEDODONTICS
Pedodontics, or pediatric dentistry, is highly relevant as it
addresses the unique oral health needs of children. It plays a
crucial role in promoting early dental care, preventive
measures, and creating positive experiences to establish a
foundation for lifelong oral health. By specializing in
pedodontics, dental professionals can cater to the distinct
challenges and requirements of treating children, contributing
to their overall well-being and fostering good dental habits
from an early age.
151. Introduction to
Esthetic Dentistry
Esthetic Dentistry goes beyond enhancing
the appearance of teeth; it also focuses on
improving the aesthetics of gums and bite.

152. History of Esthetic
Dentistry
In the 19th century, dentures faced
resistance from the human body, leading to
a rejection of various materials, including
human teeth. However, porcelain teeth
gained popularity, and dentists started
utilizing plaster molds for improved denture
fitting.

153. History of Esthetic Dentistry
As the 1900s dawned, the dental industry
witnessed a shift from porcelain dental crowns to
more economical materials like plastics and
acrylics. This transition paved the way for
modern denture construction, with acrylics
remaining a prevalent choice for dentures to this
day.
The 20th century marked the true emergence of
cosmetic dentistry, bringing about significant
changes, shifting from porcelain to more
economical plastics and acrylics. This paved the
way for modern cosmetic dentistry, emphasizing
the pursuit of aesthetically pleasing and natural-
looking teeth through various techniques like
whitening, veneers, and implants.
