"National Love Day Day" experts support to protect children's oral health

September 20th is the 34th "National Love Day". This year's theme is "Oral Healthy Sports Health -Determaking and Determading Teeth Strong Healthy Chinese Nation". On September 19, the reporter came to the Children's Stomatology Department of the Stomatology Hospital of Hebei Medical University and the dental department of the Hebei Provincial Chest Hospital for visiting. Many parents and children in the waiting area were waiting in an orderly manner. Most of these children who look at the teeth are under 12 years old, most of which are medical treatment due to dental caries and dental caries. So, how should children and teenagers protect oral health? In this regard, experts say that the tooth care needs to start from the child's teeth.

Medical staff is treating teeth for children.

Infantile period

Prevent dental caries should be taken care of before the child's teething

"The child is less than 5 years old, and several teeth are damaged to varying degrees. Especially the two front teeth in front, I feel that I will be" drowned "immediately." Speaking of which, Ms. Liu sighed.

Ms. Liu's daughter is four and eight months old this year. She said: "My daughter likes to drink night milk since she was a child. Habits, so when my daughter is more than three years old, the teeth have begun to have problems. "

"At that time, the child was young and did not cooperate with the teeth. And at that time, the teeth had only a little bit of ore and discoloration symptoms, and we didn't pay much attention to it. Until some time ago she said toothache, we came to the hospital's dental department for examination, and we knew that it had developed into the development of the development of the hospital. Total dental caries. "Ms. Liu said, she was particularly worried about whether her daughter's situation would affect her teeth in the future.

Coincidentally, the 8 -year -old boy also encountered a tooth problem every day. Every day, the dental change period, but the two door teeth are backward but can't grow. After seeing other young friends of the same age, the two big incisors had grown up, and they were still dark when they opened their mouths. They felt a little inferior every day. Seeing that the son pursed his mouth every day and did not dare to open it, Ms. Wang Ms. Wang was very anxious. After the doctor's examination, Ms. Wang learned that her son did not pay attention to protecting the deciduous teeth when she was a child. She found that the deciduous dental dental caries were found. Eventually, the deciduous teeth were corroded and incomplete, which affected the growth of the child's permanent teeth.

Shi Hong, deputy director of the Children's Stomatology Department of Stomatology Hospital of Hebei Medical University, introduced that compared with the permanent teeth, deciduous teeth are immature, low in mineralization, thin glaze and dental essence, and high probability of caries. If parents have improper feeding habits, such as frequent and irregular feeding with bottle or breast milk, drinking milk or eating before going to bed, causing food to attach to the teeth for a long time, it is easy to cause the occurrence of dental dental caries.

"Because children will have a process of teeth, many parents think that deciduous dental caries do not need to be treated. In fact, this view is wrong." Shi Hong said that further development of dental caries will involve dental nerves, leading to dental nerve necrosis, inflammation of the root, and even affecting the root causes, and even affecting the root cause of the root cause. The development and eruption of children's permanent teeth lead to abnormal development of the entire dental.

Little common sense of tooth care: The prevention of dental caries should start from the child's teeth. Before the child's teething, parents can use wet gauze or wearing special fingers to massage their children's gums, so that children can get used to oral cleaning in advance. When the child's first deciduous teeth are sprouting, they can continue to use the same method to clean their teeth and gums. As the child grows age, children can brush their teeth every morning and evening. In addition, young children eat less sweets, drink less carbonated drinks, control the total amount of sugar, and can not eat after the mouth cleaning before going to bed at night.

In order to maintain the oral health of young and children, parents should take their children to the hospital for oral examination regularly instead of discovering problems before going to the doctor.

Academic age

The 10 -year -old beauty has become a "ugly duckling"

The 10 -year -old girl Yiyi, with big eyes, white skin, and most of them from childhood. I do n’t know when it started, Yiyi's teeth have been crowded. Several teeth are still lying out and concave inward. The teeth are long and short, which is very ugly. His daughter's daughter changed from "little beauty" to "ugly duckling" because of her teeth. Yiyi's parents were particularly anxious.

"Now think about it, the child's teeth problem starts with her deciduous teeth changing permanent teeth." Yiyi's mother said that the daughter's deciduous teeth had fallen for a long time, and the permanent teeth could not grow. When it is difficult to grow, the permanent teeth have grown, but "uneven". Yiyi's mother has always had a doubt in her heart. She and their lover's teeth have grown particularly neatly. I don't know why her daughter's teeth are so messy?

In desperation, Mom and Dad brought Yiyi to see the teeth of the child's dental department of the hospital. "Maybe you think it's strange, but we have already seen it. In recent years, there are more and more children like Yiyi." Shi Hong told Yiyi's mother, "The main reason for the children's teeth are not neat. It is parents who let their children eat too delicately. "

Shi Hong said that the current children's food is getting more and more detailed, and the parents are too caring. The children's diet is mostly fine and soft foods, and the children are becoming more and more unwilling to chew rough and hard foods, resulting in the chewing function becoming weaker and weaker and weaker and weaker Essence Children's teeth and chewing muscles cannot get the due exercise, causing muscle weakness and atrophy, and the jaw can not develop well. However, the number of teeth of children has not decreased, which causes the incidence of deformity of tooth errors.

"In addition, some children do not pay attention to the cleaning of the oral cavity, causing dental caries, and severe cases cause the permanent teeth under the deciduous teeth to affect their eruption. It will cause uneven teeth. "Shi Hong said that the phenomenon of uneven teeth arranged by children can be resolved by correction. Shi Hong introduced that some parents believe that children's correction of teeth should be carried out after the 12 -year -old deciduous teeth are replaced. In fact, children of different ages may have tooth problems. Parents should pay attention to changes in their teeth at each age group of their children.

Tooth care common sense: Generally speaking, when children are 3-4 years old, parents should pay attention to whether the child has dental problems such as "ground bag" and "龅 teeth". If these problems are existing, it should be dealt with early, so as to block the abnormal development of children's teeth. When the child is 6-11 years old, parents should go to the oral department of the hospital for examination every six months. Once the problem is found, it should be corrected in time.

Parents need to pay attention to that orthodontics is a complex treatment process, and they must go to the hospital for a detailed examination, and a specialist will be diagnosed and treated. For children with crowded teeth, orthodontic treatment needs to be performed when the permanent teeth are replaced.

Bleeding of adolescent gums, don't mistakenly think it is "getting angry"

The 14 -year -old Xiaowei is in the second year of the second year. Because he usually does not pay attention to oral hygiene, many dental stones are attached to his teeth. Some time during this time, the gums often bleed when Xiaowei brushed her teeth. Blood marks can also be seen occasionally when biting apples, pear and other fruits.

"At first I thought that the child was simply getting angry, and we didn't care too much. But recently his gums were swollen and swollen, and even if he accidentally licked with his tongue, he would bleed." Xiao Wei said that when he saw this, he was really really the situation. It was frightened, and quickly took the child to the dental department of the Hebei Provincial Chest Hospital for examination. After some inspection, Xiao Wei learned that her son suffered from "adolescent gingivitis".

When seeing the words "adolescent gingivitis", Xiao Wei and his mother were confused. In this regard, the doctor's explanation is that after entering the adolescence, the child’s deciduous teeth are replaced by the permanent teeth. The straw of plaque causes gingivitis.

In this regard, Xu Yunhai, director of the Department of Stomatology, Hebei Province, said that in addition to the above reasons, "adolescence gingivitis" is also related to changes in hormones in the body. The gums are one of the organs of sex hormones. The oral mucosa contains a large amount of sex hormone receptors. The changes in the level of sex hormone levels in adolescence make the stimulation of bacteria on the gingival tissue significantly increased. The response or the original chronic gingivitis aggravated, thereby forming "adolescence gingivitis".

"'Adolescent gingivitis' is manifested in gums redness, enlarged, bleeding, and odor, and often mistakenly believed that 'getting angry'." Xu Yunhai said, "adolescent gingivitis" is similar to gingival inflammation caused by pure bacterial infections. But the degree is more serious and it is easy to recur.

Little common sense of tooth care: Children of adolescence bleed gums when brushing their teeth, which is a sensitive indicator of self -test of gingivitis. If teenagers have this symptom, it means that its gum inflammation has reached a certain degree, and it should go to a regular medical institution for oral examination and treatment in time.

Parents who have adolescent children at home should pay attention to that if children have problems such as "redness or bleeding in gums", don't mistakenly think it is simply getting angry. Of course, if the child suffers from "adolescent gingivitis", parents do not need to worry too much. After basic treatment such as cleaning, "adolescence gingivitis" can basically heal. However, if it is not actively treated, some patients may develop into periodontitis, causing phenomena such as loose teeth and lack of teeth.
