#为什么每天刷牙还会蛀牙#头条热榜
Developing good habits of using teeth should start from a young age, and don't think that there are permanent teeth after the loss of baby teeth, and there is still a chance. The decay of the deciduous teeth and the destruction of the crown lead to the deterioration of the oral environment, making the inherited permanent teeth susceptible to caries, especially the adjacent permanent teeth.
But why do children still get tooth decay when they brush their teeth every day?
First, the child is small and has poor self-discipline
Even brushing your teeth may seem like a small thing, but you can't always do it right. This requires the supervision of the parents who are the guardians.
Therefore, in the early stage of cultivating children's brushing habits, parents must teach their children the correct brushing methods and do a good job of supervision.
Although there are many difficulties, it is better than going in and out of the dental department often in the future, not to mention how much money is spent, even the pain is unbearable, otherwise how can there be a "toothache is not a disease, pain costs life".
Second, the brushing method is incorrect
Some parents wonder why I brush my child's teeth every day, but he still has tooth decay? The reason for this is that there must be a mistake in a certain program of dental care, and even the parents themselves do not know where this mistake is.
Let's check and see what you did wrong!
The correct brushing method advocated by dentists is the modified Pap brushing method.
Step 1: Brush the outside of your front teeth;
Step 2: Brush the inside of the front teeth;
Step 3: Brush the outer surface of your back teeth;
Step 4: Brush the inside of your teeth;
Step 5: Brush the occlusal surface of the teeth;
Step 6: Gently brush the surface of the tongue coating.
Is this how you teach your children?
3. Insufficient brushing time
How long do you brush your teeth every day, how long do you supervise your child's brushing, and do you just do it after two random strokes in your mouth?
Especially when you're in a hurry to go out and your child is slowly washing. At this time, the easiest thing to compress is the brushing time, and it is over for tens or even tens of seconds.
Do you think this kind of brushing can help to clean your teeth? With this kind of brushing habit, your child does not have to have tooth decay.
The correct way to do is to brush your teeth for at least 2~3 minutes, once a day in the morning and once in the evening.
If your child is already slow to brush his teeth, he will not cooperate, so get up early to do this before forming a habit to avoid ineffective brushing.
In addition to brushing, what other effective measures can be taken to protect and clean your teeth?
In addition to tooth brushing, dental floss, fluoride application, and pit and fissure sealing can effectively clean teeth and prevent tooth decay. In particular, pit and fissure sealing is recommended by the World Health Organization and is a cost-effective measure to prevent pit and fissure caries recommended by the World Health Organization.
1. Dental floss, which can remove food debris embedded between the teeth and help clean the side of the tooth.
Also, don't worry about dental floss getting bigger and bigger. This is because the teeth themselves have a certain physiological movement, and when the dental floss passes between the two teeth, the teeth move in a way that is invisible to the naked eye.
After the dental floss is passed, the teeth will return to their original position and continue to stick to their posts.
2. Fluoride on teeth
For children under the age of 3, according to the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics, when the first tooth erupts, that is, about 6 months, parents should take the baby to the dentist regularly, and the doctor will measure the risk of caries and judge whether fluoride is needed according to the different levels of risk.
Children over 3 years old can receive topical fluoride anti-caries measures implemented by dental professionals, 1~4 times a year.
3. Pit and fissure sealing
Generally, pit and fissure sealants are best done within 1 year after the eruption of the back teeth. Different teeth have their own suitable closing time:
3~4 years old is the best time for pit and fissure sealing of primary molars;
6~7 years old is the best time for the pit and fissure closure of the sixth instar tooth, that is, the first permanent molar;
11~13 years old is the best time for premolars and second permanent molars to seal pits and fissures.
It should be noted that avoid eating hard and sticky foods for 3 days after pit and fissure sealing, and have regular oral examinations for 3-6 months.
Looking at it this way, I suddenly feel that the child's dental care project is huge! Although this is the case, parents must not be lazy in this matter~
