About changing teeth, it is really a nervous and expectant process. It is estimated that parents have a laundry list of stories to tell. Today, let's take a look at what children should pay attention to when changing their teeth:
1. When will the child change his teeth?
When the child enters the tooth changing period, the permanent teeth erupt, which makes the root of deciduous teeth absorb, loosen and fall off in order, and the permanent teeth gradually erupt in the vacancy. The tooth-changing period begins at about 6 years old and ends at 12~ 13 years old.
The tooth changing sequence is generally as follows:
Second, which is the "six-age tooth" that only grows once?
When the child is about six years old, the first permanent molar will quietly grow behind the last deciduous molar, which is commonly known as the six-year-old tooth. Many parents didn't know it existed, even thought it would be replaced, so they neglected nursing, which led to many children's six-year-old teeth beginning to decay early. Parents must pay attention! Six-year-old teeth only grow once After this tooth erupts, it must be cleaned in time to seal the pit and fissure.
3. Why are the children's new front teeth serrated?
The newly replaced front teeth were serrated when they first erupted. Sawtooth is a developmental nodule of teeth, which will gradually flatten with eating and chewing. This is not an abnormal situation and does not require treatment.
When the upper incisors grow out, they show a figure of eight. Do I need to wear braces?
Because the tooth germs of the two teeth on the unexplored side press the root of the incisors, the newly erupted incisors will take on a figure of eight. This ugly duckling stage is only a transitional period. With the eruption of lateral teeth, the temporary abnormality will naturally disappear.
Fifth, the child's new teeth have grown out, and the old teeth have not dropped, showing double rows of teeth. What should I do?
The characteristic of children's diet is that the food is too fine, which often leads to the deciduous teeth not falling off when they grow new teeth. Generally speaking, if a lot of new teeth erupt, but the deciduous teeth are not loose, it is recommended to pull out the deciduous teeth and the new teeth will adjust themselves to the normal position.
6. Why is the new tooth so yellow? Is it not well developed?
It is normal for new permanent teeth to be yellow than deciduous teeth, because the calcification degree of permanent teeth is higher than deciduous teeth, that is to say, the enamel transparency of the outermost layer of permanent teeth is better than deciduous teeth, so it is easy to expose the yellow dentin of the inner layer. However, if the teeth are seriously discolored, please seek medical advice and consult a dentist for identification.
I remember when I was a child, the old people would say that the lower teeth should be thrown on the roof and the upper teeth should be thrown under the bed, so that good teeth can grow! It is also said that deciduous teeth look good, and they will not be neat and beautiful after tooth replacement. On the contrary, if the deciduous teeth are not good-looking, the teeth will be neat and beautiful after tooth replacement.
But as we all know, these are just superstitious statements. If you really want a good tooth, you must have a good baby habit and take care of your parents. In fact, as long as parents master three tricks, they can help their children grow neat teeth.
1, the child should go to the stomatology department for a comprehensive examination after he is 3 years old.
Find problems and deal with them as soon as possible, such as reversal and deviation. Generally speaking, 1 1- 14 years old is the best age for orthodontics, but there is no strict age limit. As long as the teeth are healthy, orthodontics can be done at the age of 60.
2. Cultivate good eating habits.
Encourage children not to be picky about food, not to be partial to food, eat less snacks, and eat more foods that are beneficial to teeth, such as whole grains, vegetables, fruits and nuts. And through full chewing to promote the development of mandible, make teeth more tidy and easier to clean.
3. Put an end to bad habits.
Correct children's bad habits such as sticking out tongue, sucking fingers, licking teeth, biting pencils, biting skirts, biting lips and unilateral chewing. Be timely, otherwise it will cause deformity of teeth and jaws.
