The hazards of babies breathing through their mouths

  In daily life, many people use their mouths to breathe. Although breathing through the mouth can bring more oxygen to the body, frequent mouth breathing can pose certain risks to children's health. So what are the hazards of babies breathing through their mouths?

  

The hazards of babies breathing through their mouths1

  1. The face becomes ugly. I believe many parents know that the eruption and arrangement of teeth are not only influenced by genetic factors, but also directly related to external forces. And the external forces here mainly include tongue, lips, airflow, and external objects, etc. When a baby breathes through their mouth for a long time, it naturally causes airflow to exert a certain pressure on their mouth, resulting in unsightly appearance.

  2. Affects health. When babies breathe through their noses, the nasal mucosa and secretions filter the air to a certain extent. In this case, it will naturally effectively reduce the content of particulate matter and bacteria. But when breathing through the mouth, the oral cavity does not have a structure similar to the nasal cavity, so it has little filtering effect on the air, which can cause unnecessary harm to oneself in the long run.

  3. Affects physical form. If the oral cavity suffers from severe developmental disorders due to external factors, it may even break the bite and cause asymmetry in facial muscle strength. Over time, this will affect the neck and cause deviation, which will naturally trigger problems with the baby's body shape.
