What is the relevant knowledge about the order of children's tooth replacement?

We all know that in the process of children's growth, tooth replacement is a necessary stage, but in fact, the knowledge about the order of children's tooth replacement is not as simple as we know. It involves a lot of other related knowledge. So today let us learn about the relevant knowledge about the order of children's tooth replacement:

Primary central incisors: 4 teeth, 5 to 7 years old

Primary lateral incisors: 4 teeth, 8 to 9 years old

First deciduous molars 4 10 years old

After the replacement teeth are called first canines, or first premolars

Primary canines: 4 at age 11

Second deciduous molars 4 12 years old

After the replacement teeth are called second bicuspids, or second premolars

New first permanent molars 4 6 years old

New second permanent molars 4 teeth 12-14 years old

New third permanent molars 0-4 teeth 18 years old Commonly known as "wisdom teeth"

2. There are 4 things to pay attention to during tooth replacement

1. Pay attention to the growth of your child’s deciduous teeth and permanent teeth, and see a dentist regularly to detect problems and resolve them early. If you find that permanent teeth are growing next to the deciduous teeth, but the deciduous teeth have not fallen out, forming a double row of teeth, parents should take the child to the hospital as soon as possible to remove the retained deciduous teeth. In addition, if the gap between the upper incisors is too large, deformed teeth grow from the upper incisors, or an incisor grows from an abnormal position, this means that there may be multiple teeth growing in one place, and you should go to the hospital for treatment.

2. Encourage your children to brush their teeth every day, once in the morning and once in the evening, to prevent tooth decay. Children should use children's special toothpaste and toothbrush to brush their teeth, and brush their teeth correctly, about two to three minutes. In addition to brushing teeth, it is best for children to rinse their mouths after each meal to maintain oral hygiene.

3. Some parents think that feeding their children fine, soft food when they are changing their teeth can protect the newly erupted permanent teeth. Little do people know that if they only eat soft food and lack the stimulation of chewing food, it will affect the development of the jaw, causing the deciduous teeth to "occupy space", forcing the permanent teeth to grow from the lingual or labial side of the deciduous teeth, forming "double-layer teeth". Therefore, during the period of teeth replacement, children should eat more foods with high fiber and a certain degree of hardness, such as beef, carrots, celery, corn, etc. Occasionally, they can eat some chewy foods such as jellyfish, peanuts, and spiced beans. In addition, let your children eat more hard foods and foods low in sucrose, do not cut fruits into small pieces, and eat less snacks.

4. Correct children’s bad habits in time, such as sticking out the tongue, biting the tongue, biting fingers or pencils, licking teeth with the tongue, etc. These bad habits will affect the growth of children’s teeth and cause tooth deformation.

It can be seen that during the children's growth stage, the relevant knowledge about the order of children's tooth replacement is still very complicated. This also tells our parents that they must pay attention to the different manifestations of children's growth and tooth replacement stage in a timely manner, so that they can smoothly pass the tooth replacement stage and usher in better growth.
