Pediatric dentistry at Dentistry Lucerne
The first years of a child's life are crucial to the foundation of their dental health. Dr. Eppenberger at Dentistry Lucerne understands this deeply and has made it his mission to provide the youngest patients with the best possible start to a lifetime of oral health. Pediatric dentistry is not only a specialization, but also an art that requires sensitivity, patience and a child-friendly approach.
With a specialized approach focused on the unique needs of young patients, at Dentistry Lucerne we ensure that a visit to the dentist is a positive and encouraging experience.

The importance of the first visit to the dentist
The first visit to the dentist can be formative. We put the child's well-being first. With a sensitive and calm approach, we ensure that every child feels comfortable and understood. The focus is on prevention, early detection of tooth damage and misaligned teeth.
Guide to dental accidents
Accidents happen, especially in childhood. If your child suffers a dental accident, it is important to contact us immediately. Even seemingly minor accidents can have long-term consequences. We recommend that parents keep a dentosafe box in which the tooth can be stored for up to 24 hours.
Preparing for the first visit to the dentist
Preparing children for their first visit to the dentist in a curious and positive way is crucial. A playful approach, such as a joint visit during a treatment or dental hygiene session with the parents, can work wonders. Ideally, this first visit should take place as soon as all the milk teeth have erupted.
Why are milk teeth so important?
Although they eventually fall out, milk teeth are crucial for a child's development. They not only influence chewing, but also speech development, facial features and maintain the space for permanent teeth.
Nitrous oxide:
Gentle reassurance when needed
Nitrous oxide can be the solution for particularly anxious children. It allows young patients to relax and experience the treatment without fear. The child remains conscious and responsive at all times. Our experienced team ensures that the application is safe and comfortable.
In our practice, we value child-friendly dentistry based on trust, care and expertise. Your little ones are in the best hands with us!
