Why do children’s teeth turn black?

For a mother, her child is the most important thing in the world. If there is something wrong with her child, the mother will be very worried. Recently, a mother told me that her child’s teeth are very black, but the child brushes his teeth on time and doesn’t eat a lot of sweet foods. Why is this happening? The editor here has some information about black teeth in children. I would like to share it with you to see if it can be of any help.

1. The most common factor that causes children's teeth to turn black is tooth staining. This situation usually occurs when children mainly consume foods and drinks containing pigments, such as syrups, traditional Chinese medicine, etc.

2. Dental plaque causes children's teeth to turn black mainly because they have not developed good oral hygiene habits, which causes residual food in the mouth to ferment under the action of bacteria and adhere to the surface of the teeth. If it is not removed in time, it will slowly develop into caries.

3. The main reason why children’s teeth turn black is due to incomplete development of tooth enamel. This is because the calcification of children’s teeth is poor and the tooth surface is uneven. The teeth will initially show white spots on the teeth, which will gradually develop into enamel loss and blackening of teeth. What should I do if my child's teeth turn black? The prevention of black teeth in children is mainly to develop good oral hygiene habits, brush teeth in the morning and evening and rinse mouth after meals, try to eat less beverages and foods containing pigments. Black teeth caused by incomplete enamel development are determined by the physical condition of children during tooth development, such as calcium deficiency, certain high fever diseases such as pneumonia, etc. You can start oral care from the time your baby's first deciduous tooth erupts, so as to effectively prevent the formation of tartar and plaque.

All the factors mentioned above should be paid attention to, and children's health needs to be carefully cared for. For example, if tooth enamel is not fully developed, it means that the child’s nutrition is not enough. Parents should pay attention to providing their children with good nutrition. Children should be given enough nutrition from an early age so that they will not lose at the starting line. Don’t you think so?
