The reason why two-year-old baby's teeth turn yellow

There must be a method to take care of the baby. Many parents are rather casual when taking care of their babies. This is not good for the baby's body, and the baby's body is easily affected by the outside world. Therefore, the baby must be taken care of carefully. Why do two-year-old babies have yellow teeth? There are some reasons for this situation. Let me introduce them in detail below.

Reasons for yellow teeth in two-year-old babies:

1. Health factors: Poor nutrition or illness during the development of baby's teeth may affect the calcification of the teeth, making the teeth yellow and brittle.

2. Water quality factors: In some areas, especially in some mountainous areas, due to the high fluoride content in the water, drinking too much fluoride will cause the teeth to turn yellow. And it is not just 1-2 teeth, but a whole mouth of yellow teeth. Fluoride has an anti-caries effect, so these people are less likely to develop caries.

3. Drug factors: Now most people know that tetracycline drugs can cause yellow teeth, especially when taken by children (before 5 years old).

4. Hygiene habits: Food residues left in the mouth will mix with bacteria to form a thin film that adheres to the teeth, forming dental plaque. After staying in the mouth for a long time, it will decalcify the teeth and slowly lead to tooth decay. Newborns do not have this bacteria in their mouths and it is usually passed to babies through the saliva of their mothers or caregivers. In addition, breast milk or formula milk contains lactose. If a child often goes to sleep with a bottle in his mouth or has the habit of drinking milk at night, it may cause tooth decay.

After understanding the reasons for yellow teeth in two-year-old babies, when alleviating the baby's physical problems, you should pay attention to following the doctor's advice. Also, when improving the baby's physical condition, some complementary foods should be added to the baby, mainly vegetables and fruits, which will also help supplement the baby's body with vitamins.
