Many novice parents often make mistakes because they don't care too much about their children. It's like when someone discovers that a baby hasn't even grown a single tooth at eight or nine months old and thinks it's a congenital disease, they go to the doctor in fear and find out that the child's calcium is insufficient. So let's understand, is not having teeth in a baby calcium deficiency?
Firstly, the first teeth of a baby usually grow out between four to seven months old, starting with the two front teeth in the middle of the lower row. Then, four to five weeks after the first tooth grows, the four front teeth in the middle of the upper row will also appear. Another month later, the two teeth on both sides of the front teeth in the lower row will also emerge. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the timing of tooth growth. Parents should provide their babies with adequate nutrition, especially calcium supplementation.
Secondly, novice parents can also look at their baby from other aspects, such as having a circle behind their hair and poor sleep. They need to consider whether it is a calcium deficiency, and it is best to test for trace elements. It is also necessary to remind parents that there are many calcium supplements on the market now. When making a choice, it is important to choose products with good effects and no side effects.
Furthermore, although calcium is essential for the development of bones and teeth, it should not be overloaded because excessive addition of calcium tablets can cause unnecessary calcium to be excreted through the kidneys, increasing the chance of kidney stones. Of course, as long as the diet is balanced, every baby's growth and development will be healthy and normal, and there is no risk of calcium deficiency.
