Don't hurt the child!

baby/milk/deciduous/primary tooth

This is the child's first pair of teeth. Children begin to grow their first teeth when they are half a year old. Generally, 20 deciduous teeth can grow completely when they are 2-3 years old. The deciduous teeth have been with us for about 6- 10 years. The child began to change his teeth around the age of 6 and grew "six-year-old teeth".

decayed tooth

It is what we often call "worm teeth", not caused by bugs visible to the naked eye. Dental caries are caused by bacteria on the surface of teeth.

Some parents think that deciduous teeth will change in the future, and it doesn't matter if they are decayed. This idea is actually wrong. Primary teeth are very important, not only for children, but also for permanent teeth.

Harm of deciduous teeth caries

These bills cannot be ignored!

Bill 1: Affect children's chewing ability

Dental caries can affect children's chewing function. Dental caries of deciduous teeth lead to tooth defects, especially when deciduous molars are defective, the chewing function will be obviously reduced, and sometimes unilateral chewing habits will be formed, which will lead to asymmetric facial development for a long time.

Bill 2: Damage to permanent teeth and dentition

Dental caries of deciduous teeth will "damage" permanent teeth and dentition.

The decay of deciduous teeth and the collapse of teeth make food residues and soft dirt stay in the mouth, which makes oral hygiene worse and easily leads to the decay of newly erupted permanent teeth. After deciduous tooth caries develops to root inflammation, inflammation will affect the tooth germ of the lower permanent teeth, making the subsequent permanent teeth erupt too early or too late, affecting the eruption order and position of the permanent teeth.

Bill 3: Oral Mucosal and Soft Tissue Injury

After caries, incomplete crown can stimulate the local mucosa of tongue, lips and cheeks. Roots with chronic periapical periodontitis sometimes penetrate the gingival mucosa and are exposed to the mouth, resulting in chronic traumatic ulcers of local soft tissues.

Bill 4: Affect children's wholehearted development

Most deciduous teeth are decayed and their crowns are broken, which reduces children's chewing function and affects their nutrient intake, thus affecting the growth and development of children's maxilla and whole body, and the body's resistance may also be reduced. At the same time, the caries of deciduous teeth will also affect the appearance, and even affect the pronunciation when the front teeth are seriously corroded, which will cause a certain shadow to the child's psychology.

Although children's primary teeth will eventually be replaced by permanent teeth, the bill of "caries" of primary teeth can not be ignored. Parents should take their children for oral examination regularly. Once dental caries are found, they should seek medical advice in time to ensure the health of deciduous teeth.
