Whether children's deciduous teeth need to be corrected depends on the situation. If the arrangement is uneven, such as crowding and eversion of deciduous teeth, these will not affect the occlusal relationship or normal development, and no treatment is needed. However, sometimes the deciduous teeth are not arranged properly, accompanied by severe occlusal dysplasia, such as mandibular retraction and severe mandibular depth coverage, which affects the development of maxilla and mandible. This situation must be corrected in time.
For deciduous teeth, it is especially necessary to correct them in advance. Because we know that the growth and development of the entire human maxilla is before the age of 10. If we continue to cover the sun at this time, it is likely that the maxilla will not develop and the mandible will become crazy, resulting in a flat face. Therefore, we need to correct any deformity that may affect jaw development in advance. It's best to go before two and a half years old, because usually two and a half years old children are in the stage of growth and development, and they will react better when they are subjected to external forces.
If the child's teeth are uneven, it can generally be corrected by wearing a dental appliance. However, the best age of orthodontic treatment is between 10 ~ 14 years old, with short treatment time and good curative effect. The older the child is, the longer the orthodontic treatment takes, the more difficult the treatment is, and some of them need surgery.
When this happens, don't worry too much, you can observe the child's situation first. Tooth irregularity is easy to occur during tooth replacement. The time for changing teeth is from six years old to 14 years old, and the cycle is relatively long. Always pay attention to the condition of teeth. If the tooth deformity is excessive and the arrangement is irregular, it can be corrected as soon as possible. The baby's uneven teeth may be related to congenital reasons or acquired factors. Acquired factors are mainly related to eating habits and bad habits. If the baby likes to stick out his tongue and suck his fingers, it is easy to have a similar situation. Children should be allowed to brush their teeth every morning and evening to keep their mouths clean and hygienic. Eating more fruits and vegetables, supplementing vitamins and eating more calcium-containing foods is beneficial to the development of teeth.
