Why do children change their teeth?

Everyone has to grow teeth twice in his life, that is, primary teeth and permanent teeth. The growth of permanent teeth must be the process of replacing deciduous teeth. Usually, when the baby is about 6 years old, the sleeping permanent teeth will gradually grow out and the deciduous teeth will be replaced slowly. 12- 13 years old can basically grow 28 teeth.

At first, children were deciduous teeth, not permanent teeth. Permanent teeth are buried in the gums at first, and they usually change their teeth at the age of 6. At this time, the sleeping permanent teeth will slowly wake up and then grow up hard. The deciduous teeth couldn't bear it, and they were pushed up and down, from wobbling to finally falling off, and completed their mission.

After deciduous teeth fall off, permanent teeth begin to chew. When the child is about 12- 13 years old, the deciduous teeth and permanent teeth will complete the handover. From then on, the permanent teeth will accompany the baby for life, eating and drinking with him. Therefore, parents must guide their children when they change their teeth, so that children can develop good habits of caring for their teeth and paying attention to oral hygiene from an early age.

How can mothers help their children to get through the tooth changing period smoothly, so that their babies can have bright eyes and bright teeth? Correct bad habits. Many babies like to lick their baby teeth with their tongues when they are loose. This habit must be corrected in time! Many children like to pull out loose deciduous teeth by hand, and even some mothers will "help" deciduous teeth to make them fall off quickly. Never use brute force to forcibly tear off deciduous teeth, otherwise it may lead to broken teeth or root damage, causing unnecessary trouble. The main function of teeth is chewing, so you can eat some foods with high hardness during tooth changing, such as apples, carrots, celery, corn and so on. Let the deciduous teeth fall off naturally.
