Why do children have late tooth replacement?

Every child will go through the process of changing teeth. Many parents also know that children start changing teeth around the age of 6. Changing teeth early or late is not a normal phenomenon. Nowadays, many children change their teeth relatively late, and some even change their teeth at the age of seven or eight. This is certainly not normal. In response to issues that many parents are concerned about, today I will introduce the specific circumstances of children's late tooth replacement.

People call permanent teeth "six-year teeth", which is not without reason, because children usually start to replace their teeth at around 6 years old. But some children will change their teeth earlier or later than this. In fact, it is normal to change their teeth at the age of 5 or 7, but if it is earlier or later, it may mean that there is a problem.

Premature tooth replacement is usually caused by trauma to the child's teeth (such as bumps and collisions), or it may be caused by certain oral diseases (such as tooth inflammation, caries, etc.).

If teeth are replaced too late, there may be something wrong with the child's internal body, such as congenital loss of permanent teeth, which causes the deciduous teeth to fall out too late. However, due to the great individual differences among children, it must be determined after clinical observation by a doctor.

Parents must pay close attention to their children's dental condition. If you find that your child's deciduous teeth fall out prematurely due to caries, trauma, periodontal disease, etc., you should seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid damage to the bite function and affect the normal development of permanent teeth and maxillofacial area. Don't always feed your children soft food or sweets, as this is not conducive to the training of their teeth's chewing ability, and will affect the normal development of their teeth.

In addition, nutrition must be kept up, and don't indulge him when eating. You must develop a habit from now on. Nutrition should be comprehensive! If teeth grow late, they will also fall out late! Children usually start to change their teeth at around 6 years old, but in some cases it may be delayed.

Parents, do you understand? If your child's teeth change late, you must take your child to the hospital for a check-up to see if there is anything wrong with his or her body. During this time, parents may wish to let their children eat more hard things, such as nuts, walnuts, chestnuts, etc., which can help children change their teeth more effectively.
