Every child is born into this world after going through a mother's arduous process of nurturing and giving birth. Therefore, mothers want their children to grow up as well as possible, not only in terms of physical health, but also in terms of high-quality clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Even for details like teeth, mothers are worried that their children's development may not be good and affect their future life. So, what should we do if our baby teeth are uneven?
Firstly, uneven baby teeth are a normal condition that does not require immediate correction. Deciduous teeth are destined to be replaced by permanent teeth. As children grow up, deciduous teeth will gradually fall out and grow stronger and more stable teeth. In the process of alternation, teeth will generally readjust their position and maintain a certain degree of neatness. Of course, mothers can also pay attention to observing whether the changes in teeth are normal during the child's tooth replacement period.
If the baby teeth have been replaced but still feel that the teeth are not neat enough, usually the child starts orthodontic treatment after the age of 13, because permanent teeth can only grow to the point where orthodontic equipment can be worn, and teeth that are too small do not meet the requirements of regular orthodontic equipment.
Irregular teeth are not only caused by congenital genetic factors, but also by acquired factors. Therefore, it is important to occasionally eat hard foods, maintain a reasonable intake of nutrients, maintain good chewing and swallowing habits, avoid sucking fingers, and avoid environments that may expose you to infectious diseases, in order to maintain a pleasant living environment.
