After being born, Baobao will have many problems, whether it is physical or lifestyle habits. There are even more problems with children who are fed formula milk than those who are breastfed. The biggest problem when eating milk powder is the pacifier. So let's learn together with the editor how to treat bottle caries in the early stage?
How to treat bottle caries in the early stage
1. Of course, if you want to restore the normal shape of your teeth from bottle caries, you need to undergo dental caries filling treatment. Firstly, the damaged tooth tissue should be thoroughly removed, and then the cavity will be exposed. Then, acute filling materials can be used to fill the cavity, so that the basic shape and function of the teeth can be restored.
2. Some children who suffer from bottle caries may not necessarily form cavities. For such caries, a 75% concentration of sodium fluoride glycerin paste can be applied to the affected area to prevent further recurrence. If this method of treatment is used, it should be checked every six months.
3. If only the enamel of the milk bottle shows signs of caries after the onset of the disease, this situation can be completely cured by repair. If there are already cavities formed and the cavities are relatively deep, then caries repair treatment is more appropriate at this time. If the cavities are already sensitive to heat, cold, acid, and sweetness, the effect of caries repair is not ideal.
Reasons for the formation of dental caries in milk bottles
Newly developed baby teeth have thin dentin, immature surface structure, low mineralization, and poor resistance to caries. Long term use of bottle feeding causes the baby's sucking action to be inactive, with the bottle stopper sticking to the baby's maxillary anterior teeth for a long time, and affecting the adjacent deciduous teeth and molars.
Sleeping with a bottle for a long time can lead to a decrease in saliva secretion, weakened swallowing function, and decreased self-cleaning ability of the mouth. In addition, when teeth are exposed to milk or acidic fermented drinks for a long time, sugar fermentation produces acid, which breeds a large number of bacteria and damages the baby's teeth.
The answer to how to treat bottle caries in the early stage has been provided above. In fact, during the treatment process, it is necessary to give the child a clear feeling of the bad delay and fill the teeth with fillings. The formation of these teeth is mainly due to the decrease in saliva and oral cleaning ability of children while eating bottles, so do not give children acidic fermented foods.
