Is the baby's deciduous teeth delayed during tooth changing? Abdicate? There are many situations. What should we do in this situation?
Baby teeth? Stick to your post? Ma Bao was in a hurry.
Many treasure mothers are very concerned when their children just sprout teeth, because this is the beginning of their baby's growth, which means they can start eating complementary food. It's so cute to watch the baby show two small white teeth, not to mention how happy he is. Mabao will soon buy a grinding stick or chewing gum for the baby to relieve the baby's itchy teeth.
However, when children's primary teeth are replaced by permanent teeth, many parents are at a loss. In fact, it is very common that deciduous teeth are loose but cannot be extracted. Under normal circumstances, children begin to change their teeth when they are five or six years old, their primary teeth fall off, and then their permanent teeth grow out. The order is from the lower teeth to the upper teeth, from the middle to the sides.
But some children can't wait to grow permanent teeth before deciduous teeth fall off. This situation is called. Retention of deciduous teeth? .
For example, some treasure mothers found that the gums under the children's lower incisors have faintly emerged with white tips, which are hard to feel, but the children's deciduous teeth have not yet grown out. Is this important? Grab the class and seize power? have you finished?
Other permanent teeth can't wait for the baby's deciduous teeth to fall off, so they rush out of the deciduous teeth, okay? Double row of teeth? As the saying goes, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, and deciduous teeth and permanent teeth can't coexist. When this embarrassing situation occurs, parents should pay attention.
What causes retention of deciduous teeth?
In fact, deciduous teeth don't want to occupy a position. The reason for procrastination is related to the insufficient growth of permanent tooth embryos on the one hand and the refined diet of children now on the other.
1. Congenital absence of permanent tooth germ
Because there is no stimulation of permanent tooth germ eruption under the root of deciduous teeth, the root can't absorb it, so deciduous teeth can't fall off for a long time, and sometimes they don't even fall off in adulthood. Some deciduous teeth like this can last until their thirties and forties, and they are laughed at. Not grown up? . However, the left deciduous teeth are not functional and still have some chewing ability.
2. Congenital dislocation of permanent tooth embryo
Under normal circumstances, deciduous teeth and permanent teeth have a one-to-one genetic relationship, and the permanent tooth embryo should be in the corresponding tooth position below the deciduous teeth.
During eruption, the root of deciduous teeth is constantly stimulated. However, some people's permanent tooth embryos are dislocated, do not grow under deciduous teeth, and cannot touch the roots of deciduous teeth. Without stimulation, the root can't be absorbed normally, so the deciduous teeth don't fall off.
3. Local inflammation leads to adhesion
Many parents have a misconception that deciduous teeth have nothing to do with permanent teeth. They are indifferent to their children's brushing and tooth protection since childhood, thinking that deciduous teeth will fall out sooner or later, so it is good to protect permanent teeth.
As we all know, permanent teeth germinate along the trajectory of deciduous teeth, and poor deciduous teeth will directly affect the growth of permanent teeth.
The child failed to get timely treatment because of deciduous tooth caries, and developed into periapical periodontitis. Inflammation leads to the adhesion between the root of deciduous teeth and alveolar bone, which leads to incomplete or non-absorption of the root of deciduous teeth and the deciduous teeth cannot fall off.
4. Eat too carefully at ordinary times.
Nowadays, most children are spoiled, and parents sometimes don't encourage their children to eat independently, for fear that they will have difficulty swallowing when eating large pieces of food or hard objects.
Some parents think that children will eat by themselves wherever they go, so they will cut food into small pieces for their children to eat. The food they eat is also flour and rice, so that their teeth will not be exercised and will not fall off easily.
Long-term retention of deciduous teeth will occupy the normal position of permanent teeth, which may lead to irregular and irregular permanent teeth and affect the normal occlusion of dentition.
In particular, stranded deciduous teeth may cause bacteria? Is there a seam to drill? Destroying the protective film on the tooth surface affects oral health and reduces children's self-confidence in interpersonal communication, so this problem must be paid attention to.
What about delayed growth of deciduous teeth?
Some parents are very anxious when they see their children's deciduous teeth, and sometimes they break off or shake their teeth with their hands, hoping to pass this toughness? Physical way? It can make deciduous teeth fall off, but it does not solve the problem. So, what is the correct way?
1, see a doctor in time and treat according to the situation.
When parents encounter the problem of retention of deciduous teeth, it is best not to make their own decisions, but to take their children to special medical institutions and let doctors make judgments. Moreover, not all retained deciduous teeth need to be pulled out, and they should be handled according to the situation.
If the permanent teeth have erupted, but the deciduous teeth are delayed, it is necessary to quickly pull out the deciduous teeth that are in the way. The sooner you pull out your permanent teeth? Smooth return? The more likely it is.
If the child has reached the age of changing teeth, the deciduous teeth have not fallen off and the permanent teeth have not erupted, then don't pull out the deciduous teeth for the time being, otherwise the child will? No teeth available? Yes
For those who have no permanent tooth germs for the time being, the deciduous teeth should be kept first, and for those whose permanent tooth germs are dislocated, traction should be done to guide the permanent teeth in a proper position? Accurate eruption? .
2. Give children coarse grains and hard food.
Parents can try to give their children more coarse grains and hard foods, such as apples, corn, carrots, etc., to fully stimulate the deciduous teeth and make them fall off naturally.
And compared with the over-refined diet in the past, so? High strength? Good chewing and eating are also helpful to promote the blood circulation of children's face and make children's gums and jaws develop well. Let the baby eat well and grow straight!
What should children do when they change their teeth?
To catch up with the children's tooth changing period, parents should urge their children to do these things well in order to spend it smoothly.
1, check your teeth on time.
Children around the age of six, it is best to check their teeth once every six months, and solve problems in time.
In daily life, if the baby's deciduous teeth are found dull and dark, it means that the deciduous teeth may have been damaged, and some children can see obvious black holes on their teeth, which is dental caries, and they should go to the hospital immediately.
2. Develop the habit of brushing your teeth and gargling.
Parents should teach their children to develop the good habit of brushing their teeth in the morning and evening and gargling after meals. Many parents think that children are too young to brush their teeth, but this is actually wrong.
When the child grows his first tooth, parents should have the consciousness of brushing their teeth and protecting their teeth. You can wrap gauze on your fingers first, or choose special children's braces and wipe them with water.
Children are about 2 years old. Can parents guide their children to use toothbrushes? Major? I brushed my teeth.
3. Reduce the intake of sweets and drinks.
Sweets and drinks are almost children's favorites, so parents must try to reduce their children's intake of these diets, especially when the tooth changing period is approaching. Don't eat sweets before going to bed, don't eat too many sweets, and don't put them in your mouth.
If the sugar in the drink stays in your mouth for too long, it will also affect the health of your teeth, so you should also drink as little as possible, and rinse your mouth in time after drinking the drink to reduce the residual juice.
4. Correct children's bad habits
Some children especially like to chew all kinds of hard objects, or eat melon seeds at an early age? Big? You can bite a lot at once, in fact, it is easy to induce the gap between the baby's deciduous teeth to become larger and affect the eruption of permanent teeth. It should be reminded.
Some children are still keen to suck their fingers when they are very old, or lick their teeth repeatedly with their tongues. These behaviors may lead to problems such as tooth inclination and protrusion. When parents discover their children's above-mentioned behaviors, they should make sense of them and help them to correct them as soon as possible.
