Let the child's growth path get better and better
During the child's growth and development process, there are three very critical "golden periods" for orthodontic treatment according to different dental conditions. Do you know when it is?
1. Deciduous teeth period: Orthodontics can avoid crossbite of permanent teeth
Deciduous teeth period is usually between 3-5 years old.
Children in the deciduous tooth period have poor self-discipline and may even develop many bad habits, such as thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, lip biting, and mouth breathing, etc., which will cause harm to oral health.
If abnormalities in children's teeth are discovered early and corrected in time, not only will the effect be good, but it will also be of great benefit to the child's oral health.
2. Teeth changing period: Functional malocclusion can be corrected
Teeth changing period is usually between 8-10 years old for girls and 9-12 years old for boys.
At this stage, the growth and development potential of the jaw can be fully utilized to suppress dental malocclusion problems, thereby effectively improving the child's facial shape and dental function.
3. Early permanent teeth: Good correction results can be achieved
Early permanent teeth are usually between 11-14 years old for girls and 13-15 years old for boys.
During this period, children's teeth are basically in shape, and the gums are in a vigorous growth state. The teeth move quickly, the correction process is relatively easy, and the correction effect is better.
If your child is between these three stages, then here is the opportunity to let your child become more beautiful quietly during the summer!
However, there are also many parents who are not able to judge whether their child’s teeth are malocclusion, then It is recommended that you take your child to a regular dental hospital for malocclusion screening first.
After passing a professional examination, you can decide whether your child should have dental correction.
Under normal circumstances, you can judge whether a child's teeth have malocclusion problems based on the following two points:
1. Facial appearance
" earth-shaking ", " buck teeth ", "small beak", "crescent moon" "face", asymmetry between the left and right faces, etc. are all external manifestations of malocclusion.
If parents notice these changes in their children's appearance, please take your children to the hospital for examination in time for diagnosis and correction.
2. Teeth morphology
Misaligned teeth, protruding upper teeth, forward chin, crooked mouth, deep overbite, crossbite , sparse dentition, etc. are not only the most intuitive morphological manifestations of malocclusion, but in severe cases It will change the shape of the child's face.
If a child who has passed the early stage of permanent teeth also meets the above conditions for malocclusion, will he miss the best period for correction?
