Paediatric dental services at Heerya
Routine check-ups and cleaning
Every 6 months is ideal for children. We check for cavities, monitor how adult teeth are coming in, and gently clean baby and mixed teeth.
Cavity care and fillings
Tooth-coloured fillings on baby and adult teeth. Done gently, with local anaesthesia only when actually needed.
Early orthodontic screening
Best done between age 9 and 12. Dr. Thukaram checks jaw development, spacing, and bite, and tells you honestly whether braces are needed now, later, or not at all.
Fluoride application
A quick treatment that strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities in children who are prone to them.
Milk tooth extractions
Only when genuinely necessary, for example, a badly decayed baby tooth that is blocking an adult tooth from coming in properly.
How Dr. Thukaram talks to kids
Children are not small adults, they need a different approach. Dr. Thukaram explains every instrument before using it, shows your child how the chair works, lets them hold the mirror, and never rushes a nervous child.
The first visit for a young child is often just a chair ride, a count of the teeth, and a sticker. That is intentional. The next visit is easier because the child already knows the place.
Good moments for a first dental visit
Around their first birthday, for a quick look and parental advice.
Before starting school, for a full check-up.
Any time your child complains of tooth pain, sensitivity, or you see brown or white spots forming on a tooth.
Between age 9 and 12, for an early orthodontic screening, before all the adult teeth are in.

Frequently asked questions
All FAQsWhen should my child see a dentist for the first time?
Around their first birthday is ideal for a first short check-up. After that, a visit every 6 months is a good rhythm to catch cavities early and monitor how adult teeth come in.
My child is very scared of dentists. Will you force them into the chair?
No. Dr. Thukaram never forces a nervous child. The first visit is often just a chair ride, a count of the teeth, and a sticker. Real treatment starts only once the child is comfortable, usually by the second or third visit.
Do baby teeth with cavities really need treatment? They will fall out anyway.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. If the cavity is small and the tooth will fall out within a year, we often watch it. If the cavity is deep, causing pain, or risking infection, we treat it to protect the adult tooth coming in underneath. Dr. Thukaram explains each case honestly.
At what age should I bring my child for an orthodontic screening?
Between age 9 and 12 is ideal, before all adult teeth are fully in, so any jaw or spacing concerns can be caught early. Many children do not need any treatment at this age. Some benefit from a simple appliance that avoids full braces later.
