Caries of milk teeth most often occurs in children with malformations of dental tissues, which are laid even in the prenatal period. The reason for this condition is the lack of mineralization of dental anchors during pregnancy. In addition, caries of milk teeth at an early age can be triggered by a hereditary predisposition, a lack of certain vitamins and minerals in the child's body, and non-observance of the rules of oral hygiene.
Instructions
Step 1
It is quite difficult to cope with caries, so the main task of parents is to stop the destructive process. A prerequisite for maintaining the health of children's teeth is regular visits to the dentist. The specialist will clean sick teeth, eliminate carious defects, cover the enamel with a special varnish, which will stop the spread of caries, and give advice on caring for the oral cavity. You should visit your dentist at least once a quarter.
Step 2
To prevent the development of caries, it is necessary to teach the baby to take care of milk teeth from an early age. Brush your teeth with your child twice a day (morning and evening). When doing this, use a special baby brush with soft bristles and an age-appropriate toothpaste.
Step 3
Follow the correct and varied nutrition of the crumbs. Products containing microelements for the formation of the dentition are especially important (magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, manganese). The child's menu should contain hard cheeses (magnesium); fermented milk products, radishes, pumpkin, beans, peas (calcium and phosphorus); meat, sea fish (zinc); oats, wheat, rye, onions (manganese).
