Treatment of large gaps between baby's front teeth

The birth of every new life will make our parents very happy, but recently the phenomenon of large gaps between babies' front teeth has made many parents worried. We all know that there are babies with large gaps between their front teeth around us. This disease has a great impact on us. Many people have sought medical treatment everywhere and have not received good treatment. Not only has it taken up a lot of time and energy, but it has also had a great impact on the normal work and life of the children and their parents. Many people are eager to find a timely and effective treatment method. So what is a good way to treat this disease? Let us now learn about the large gap between baby’s front teeth.

Treatment:

1. Removable orthodontic appliances: They are generally used to correct relatively simple malocclusions and deformities during the period of deciduous teeth and replacement teeth, or in conjunction with fixed orthodontic appliances for correction. Patients can put it on and take it off by themselves.

2. Fixed brace: the most commonly used brace. Patients cannot take it off by themselves.

Functional appliances: They are mainly used for children who are in the period of tooth replacement or have just replaced their teeth and are still in the peak period of growth and development. Functional appliances can correct bone malocclusions and deformities.

3. Orthognathic surgery: When severe dentofacial deformities, such as maxillary protrusion, maxillary retrognathic, mandibular protrusion, and mandibular retrognathic, cannot be solved by simple correction, a combined correction method of surgery and orthodontics is required.

4. Children's orthodontics is a long-term systematic project. We should pay attention to the child's dental health and development from the deciduous teeth period. Some serious deformities such as crossbite need early treatment during the deciduous teeth period. When children begin to change their teeth, they should establish contact with an orthodontist for regular checkups, observe tooth replacement, and intervene in any bad habits and tooth replacement disorders that may cause malocclusion. Some serious skeletal deformities such as maxillary protrusion, mandibular protrusion, and open bite require early correction before the onset of puberty to block the development of malocclusion and guide the normal growth of teeth and jaws.

During the rapid growth and development period of adolescence (generally 11-13 years old for girls and 12-14 years old for boys), the teeth are replaced and the jaw still has development potential. This is the best time for fixed correction, and most malocclusions can be resolved at this time. Before correction, the doctor will conduct a detailed oral examination, take X-rays, take analysis models, and conduct a comprehensive and integrated analysis to arrive at a correct diagnosis and treatment plan. Generally, malocclusion requires one to two years of treatment and then enters a maintenance period. Some severe skeletal malocclusions may not achieve the desired results after correction or may relapse due to abnormal growth patterns, and require orthognathic surgery in adulthood.
