Causes of overbite in children's teeth

There are many common diseases among children. When treating children's diseases, we should choose a variety of treatment methods, which will be of great help to improve children's diseases. Common medicines and dietotherapy for treating children's diseases are good choices. So what is the reason for children's teeth to be overbite? There are many reasons for this situation in children. The following is a detailed introduction so that you can have some understanding of this problem.

Causes of children's teeth underbite:

1. Genetic factors:

Overbite has a clear family tendency. According to relevant data, nearly half of the patients with anterior crossbite have similar malocclusions among their blood relatives of one to three generations. Malocclusion is a multi-gene genetic disease that is affected by both genetic and environmental factors.

2. Congenital diseases:

Congenital cleft lip and palate is one of the important causes of anterior crossbite. Cleft lip and palate affects the proliferation of bone sutures and the surface proliferation of bones. At the same time, surgical intervention has certain restrictions on jaw development. Among the malocclusions associated with cleft lip and palate, the most common is anterior crossbite or full arch crossbite caused by insufficient development of the maxillary bone.

3. Acquired reasons:

Hyperpituitarism produces excessive growth hormone. If it persists until after epiphyseal fusion or occurs after epiphyseal fusion, it may manifest as acromegaly, mandibular protrusion, and anterior or complete arch crossbite. Rickets is caused by vitamin D deficiency, which affects calcium and phosphorus metabolism and leads to bone metabolism disorder. It can also manifest as anterior crossbite and open bite due to mandibular developmental deformity.

After understanding the causes of children's overbite, when alleviating children's overbite, it is necessary to proceed according to the causes of children's overbite. However, when treating such a problem, parents should pay attention to the children's diet. They should choose light food and give children more vegetables to help improve the problem.
