It is easy for babies to experience blackening of their teeth during teething, and parents are very concerned about whether blackening of their teeth will have an impact on them. Why do babies' teeth turn black? What should I do if my baby's teeth turn black?
1. Baby's teeth turning black may be due to the necrosis of their dental pulp, causing the entire tooth to become dull and shiny. It may also be due to external pigmentation, such as chocolate consumed by babies or food that causes tooth discoloration due to staying up late. Drinking traditional Chinese medicine can also cause teeth discoloration in babies. Or there may be defects in the baby's teeth, which can cause them to turn black.
2. The baby's teeth turning black may be caused by calcium deficiency. In daily life, it is important to pay more attention to supplementing calcium for babies. This can be done through dietary supplements or calcium tablets. In daily life, parents should also pay more attention to supplementing calcium for their babies once their teeth turn black.
3. When a two-year-old baby knows how to brush their teeth, parents must first brush their teeth in the morning and evening to set a good example for the baby. Parents can take their babies to brush their teeth together every time they brush their teeth, pay attention to the quality of their babies' brushing, and cultivate good habits of brushing their teeth in the morning and evening. A baby's toothbrush is different from an adult's toothbrush. A baby's toothbrush should be soft and easy for their little hands to grip. Baby's toothpaste needs to be used exclusively for babies, do not use adult toothpaste for babies.
