Pediatric Dentist Jobs in Ohio

A Pediatric Dentist is a specialist in the dental industry who focuses on the oral health care of children, from infancy through adolescence. They are responsible for diagnosing and treating dental issues, guiding dental growth and development, improving oral habits, and repairing dental injuries in children. Additionally, they also offer advice on nutrition and diet that impact children's dental health. Pediatric Dentists play a crucial role in instilling good oral hygiene habits in children and educating parents on how to maintain their children's oral health.

To become a Pediatric Dentist, one must have completed a dental degree (DMD or DDS) from an accredited dental school and then undertake an additional 2-3 years of specialized pediatric dental training. This specialization requires a pediatric residency that involves advanced study in child psychology, growth, and development. Besides, they should possess certifications such as Board Certification from the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Essential skills for a Pediatric Dentist include excellent manual dexterity, good interpersonal skills, patience, and the ability to make children feel comfortable. Prior to becoming a Pediatric Dentist, an individual might have roles such as a General Dentist, Dental Hygienist, or Dental Assistant.
