Hello,
it is very difficult to treat uncooperative child esp when it comes to dental treatment, we advice to start visiting your dentist with your child as early as when the kid is 1 yr of age, so that the kid gets used to clinic environment at the same time it keeps a check on oral and dental health of the kid. the option you have now is to visit a pedodontist and ask about nitrous oxide sedation for performing the treatment procedure
Next Steps
visit pedodontist, dentist who is specialised to treat kids
Health Tips
brush twice daily using fluoridated kids toothpaste and soft toothbrush, floss kids teeth and assist the kid while brushing to make brushing more effective.
