With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more delicious foods, so many babies have problems with their teeth. The permanent teeth that grow after the deciduous teeth fall out will stay with us for a lifetime, so we must protect them well. Children do not understand things when they are young and do not know what it means to them that their teeth are broken, but as parents, we must not relax and help them pay attention to dental health.
Dental Specialist: 4 things that parents must know when the baby enters the period of teeth change
1. Give your baby more hard food.
Xiaomei's child is 5 years old this year, one day Xiaomei suddenly found that the baby's lower front teeth grew two small teeth behind them, and the front front teeth did not fall out, which can make Xiaomei anxious, if the child's teeth are not even after what to do? Xiaomei quickly took the child to the hospital, the doctor helped the child to extract the front two deciduous teeth, as for the teeth are uneven, but also depends on the development of the baby in the future.
The reason why this happens is because the food of modern children is becoming more and more refined, and many parents do not let their children nibble hard food such as bones, every day is eggs, porridge, steamed bread and other particularly soft and easy to bite food, which will cause deciduous teeth to stay, that is, permanent teeth have grown, deciduous teeth have not fallen out of the situation.
In fact, parents should give their children more hard food, so that they can not only exercise the bite force of their children's teeth, but also promote the loss of deciduous teeth.
2. Help and supervise your child's brushing
Ming is a full-time mother, since the birth of the child, she has been carefully taking the baby, in order to prevent the baby from tooth decay, Ming will let the child brush his teeth twice a day, although so careful, but obviously the child still has tooth decay.
In this regard, dental experts said that although children can brush their teeth, they may not necessarily brush clean, so they need the guidance and supervision of parents. Babies can't brush their teeth, mainly because the way and method of brushing are not right, or it may be because there is not enough time to brush their teeth.
It is recommended that children use a special children's toothbrush, soft-bristled children's toothbrush to brush their teeth, teeth inside and out to brush, up and down to brush, maxillofacial brush, the tongue side of the front teeth should also be brushed, at least three minutes to brush, so that the teeth can be brushed cleaner, these parents should teach the child.
3. Deciduous teeth should be repaired in time
Xiao Li and his mother have recently had a very unpleasant quarrel, because Xiao Li took the child to mend his teeth. Xiao Li's child is 4 years old this year, the deciduous teeth in the mouth are carious, many of them have been mothed out of the hole, Xiao Li took the child to make up the teeth, spent a lot of money. And Xiao Li's mother believes that the child's deciduous teeth will fall out sooner or later, and if they lose new teeth, they will grow out, so why waste so much money.
In this regard, dental experts said that if the child's deciduous teeth are broken, they should be repaired in time, because it takes a long time for the baby to change the deciduous teeth, especially the back teeth, which will not be changed until the age of eleven or twelve. If the baby's deciduous teeth are broken and not repaired, the root of the tooth will be inflamed and will affect the growth of the permanent tooth embryo, and premature loss will also make the permanent teeth erupt with difficulty or misplaced germination.
4. The six-year-old teeth that grow out should be closed by the fossa
When the child is about 6 years old, the child will grow six-year-old teeth, also known as the first molars, it is grown by itself, in the innermost part of the deciduous teeth, because this permanent tooth grows out earlier, long-term presence in the oral environment, the pits and fissures of the occlusal surface when germinating are not perfect, relatively deep, easy to accumulate bacteria to cause caries.
Therefore, to carry out pit and groove sealing, in order to prevent the occurrence of caries, pit and groove sealing is a very important measure to prevent grinding caries, which has been listed by WHO as one of the important means of preventing caries.
