Dental Health for Baby’s Teeth
Milk is the most important food for your baby, but when you fall asleep with a sucker in his mouth, the milk builds up and stays in the upper front teeth. The natural sugar in cow’s milk and quickly becomes acidic and starts the destruction of the teeth. Because this type of decay occurs only in the back of the upper front teeth, is not easily seen.
Pacha if feeding is used not only to feed the baby but to keep quiet or console, the only liquid that should be used is water. Any drink sweetened, carbonated water, fruit juices, milk for babies and “sugar water” can destroy the teeth.
Priate your baby begins to drink liquids from a cup and eating solid foods, you must be careful in selecting foods that provide a sensible diet and proper nutrition. Feeding habits run today, severely affect dental and general health for the rest of their lives.
Follow your dentist’s advice about the measures taken to prevent dental disease: proper diet and oral hygiene, use of fluoride and regular dental visits to stop problems at an early stage.
Best Age to Learn Tooth Brushing
Children are like sponges, absorb a 5-year all kinds of knowledge. That is why it is important to instill in this age a good oral hygiene habits.
From 9 to 12 months and eight anterior teeth erupted and as the dentition is complete chewing cycle stabilizes. When the upper and lower teeth touch, the muscles of the jaws begin to learn new roles, the first movements are irregular as seen during the first circuit of any motor skill.
From 12 to 24 months continues the development and maturation of the masticatory system to be completed within 30 months with the presence of 20 teeth in the mouth.
Avoid foods containing high percentage of carbohydrates, as they adhere to teeth and are slow release. Oral hygiene in this period without toothpaste is enough to wet the brush with water. The most important cleaning is carried out before bedtime.
Young children usually act by imitation, and will be easier to take a brush if they see parents do and more so if they are required to brush past us.
