What should I do if my child's teeth are broken?

Children are usually very casual about their diet, and parents often let their babies eat some of their favorite foods. In fact, this situation is very wrong and can easily lead to oral diseases in babies, such as caries, etc. Severe caries can cause all teeth to decay, which is very bad for the baby's health. All parents should let their children develop good living habits. So what should children do if their teeth are decayed?

First, what should we do if children have rotten teeth? First of all, we should understand the cause of caries. Caries, also known as tooth decay, is mainly caused by not brushing teeth in time after eating. Food residues ferment and produce acid under the action of bacteria, which erode teeth and decalcify and soften them, and then slowly form cavities, which is caries. Initially, there will be symptoms such as toothache and bad breath.

Second, according to statistics, the prevalence of caries in deciduous teeth of children in my country is 80% to 90%, and the prevalence of caries in permanent teeth is 40%. So how to prevent it? The first is to use fluoride toothpaste, which can make teeth stronger, acid resistance can prevent bacteria, and increase the remineralization capacity of teeth;

Third, to prevent tooth decay, we should also pay attention to oral hygiene and living habits; in addition to brushing teeth before and after meals, it is best to drink some boiled water, rinse the deep part of the mouth after eating snacks, lick your fingers, lick your teeth, lick your upper lip, bite your pencil nails, breathe through your mouth, and like to eat sweet foods, etc. In addition to causing tooth decay, it can also cause uneven tooth displacement.

What should you do if your child's teeth are rotten? When a child is six years old, the largest tooth will grow in his mouth, called the six-year molar. This tooth will not be replaced throughout his life, so adults should pay attention to protecting this tooth to prevent it from rotting prematurely. For children with caries, parents should take them to the hospital for treatment in time. Remember not to give your children snacks or milk before going to bed; because these things usually contain high sugar content. If they do not brush their teeth before going to bed, the long-term accumulation of sugar can easily generate bacteria and cause tooth decay, causing great damage to the teeth.
