The baby makes a gurgling sound when he laughs, and that sound is very pleasant, like the sound of nature. However, some attentive parents were shocked when they discovered that although the baby's laughter was normal, one side of the mouth was a little crooked. So why does a ten-month-old baby smile crookedly?

When babies smile, their mouths will occasionally tilt to one side. This is relatively normal and parents don’t need to worry. It may be caused by the incoordination of the baby's cranial nerves and facial muscles. Parents can massage the muscles around the lips more for their children. When the muscles around the lips develop in a balanced manner, the "crooked mouth" phenomenon will no longer appear. However, later observation is essential. .

If parents do not see any effect after massage, this situation occurs repeatedly, or the baby's mouth is seriously crooked, it is necessary to go to the hospital to see a doctor, such as a neurology department. After treatment, in order to avoid recurrence, it is still necessary to check with the local child health department and monitor the child's development at any time.

When a baby smiles crookedly, it usually happens accidentally and is not a habitual behavior. Don’t worry, but don’t give up observing. If the baby has other discomforts besides having a crooked mouth, such as leaking rice when eating, or the baby's eyes are crooked, and there is aches and tears, etc. Once these phenomena occur, you must go to the hospital immediately and receive active treatment according to the doctor's guidance.
