Pediatric ENT doctors specialize in disorders of the head and neck, such as tonsillitis, sinusitis, hearing loss and various types of ear infections. Our surgeries and treatments for pediatric ENT disorders include:
- Ear tubes—Ear tubes are used to help children experiencing chronic ear infections by draining fluid from the ear. Doctors may suggest a hearing test before choosing to proceed with treatment.
- Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy—During these procedures the tonsils and/or adenoids are removed to prevent any further issues or irritation.
- Myringoplasty—During this procedure, a graft is used to repair a hole in the eardrum. Myringoplasty treats conditions such as chronic middle-ear effusion, otitis media and Eustachian tube dysfunction.
