1. Pay attention to the growth of children's deciduous teeth and permanent teeth, go to the dentist regularly, find problems and solve them as soon as possible. If parents find that there are permanent teeth growing next to the deciduous teeth, but the deciduous teeth have not fallen off, forming double rows of teeth, then parents should take their children to the hospital as soon as possible to remove the stranded deciduous teeth. In addition, if the gap between the maxillary incisors is too large, the upper incisors will grow deformed teeth and one incisor will grow in an abnormal position, which indicates that there may be multiple teeth in one place and it is necessary to go to the hospital for treatment.
2. Urge children to brush their teeth every day, once in the morning and once in the evening to prevent dental caries. Children brush their teeth with toothpaste and toothbrush specially designed for children. Brushing your teeth correctly takes about two to three minutes. In addition to brushing teeth, it is best for children to rinse their mouths and maintain oral hygiene after eating food.
3. Children should eat more foods with high cellulose and certain hardness during tooth changing, such as beef, carrots, celery and corn. Maintain the stimulation of deciduous teeth and promote deciduous teeth to fall off on time. On the other hand, chewing exercise can promote the development of gums, jaws and facial bones. At present, we eat too fine food and chew too little, which leads to insufficient jaw development. As a result, many children have insufficient space after their permanent teeth erupt, and their teeth are crowded and dislocated, which affects the beauty and function of their teeth. In addition, let children eat more hard food, less sugar food and less snacks.
4. Correct some bad habits of children in time, such as spitting and biting your tongue, biting your fingers or pencils, licking your teeth with your tongue, etc. These bad habits will affect the growth of children's teeth and lead to tooth deformation.
When the child is about 6 years old, special protection should be given to his first permanent molar. Because the newly erupted tooth surface has insufficient calcification, poor acid resistance and easy dental caries. Parents should take their children to the hospital for pit and fissure sealing within one year after the eruption of new permanent molars to prevent their children from being eroded. Pit and fissure sealing is the most economical and effective method to prevent dental caries.
6. Take good care of children and try to prevent tooth loss caused by trauma. After the child's teeth fall off after trauma, it is necessary to retrieve the fallen teeth. If the tooth surface is dirty, immediately rinse off the dirt with clear water, put it in milk or water, and go to the hospital as soon as possible. A lost tooth can be replanted and fixed.
