Harm of children's tooth extraction
1, bleeding
After tooth extraction, it will cause local tissue damage, such as bleeding, swelling and pain. Generally speaking, bleeding after tooth extraction is a relatively normal phenomenon. Biting a cotton ball for a period of time will stop bleeding. However, if there is bleeding, you should call a doctor in time.
2. Influence
Tooth extraction will leave wounds in alveolar fossa and periodontal tissue. If there is no disinfection during the operation or improper care after tooth extraction, infection will occur, leading to inflammation and even dry socket.
3. Dentofacial dysplasia
If a child extracts teeth prematurely, it will lead to deciduous teeth falling off, which will lead to abnormal tooth development, tooth dislocation, abnormal dental arch shape and abnormal tooth arrangement.
4, affect pronunciation
The completeness of deciduous dentition, especially the completeness of anterior dentition, helps children to pronounce correctly. If the deciduous teeth are pulled out prematurely, it will affect the correctness of pronunciation.
5, cause chewing disorder
Primary teeth are an important part of children's digestive system. The complete dentition of deciduous teeth helps to prevent food and help digestion. However, after tooth extraction in children, tooth loss may cause alveolar bone atrophy, displacement or elongation of adjacent teeth and maxillary teeth, leading to masticatory dysfunction.
Matters needing attention in children's tooth extraction
1, the child has mixed dentition, both deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. You need to find out before you quit. Never pull out permanent teeth by mistake.
2, try to leave the deciduous teeth until the tooth replacement period, unless it is repeated anti-inflammatory, pus, or the tip of the eye has been pulled out of the gums.
3. If it is found that the permanent teeth have grown dentition and the deciduous teeth have not fallen off, the stranded deciduous teeth should be removed in time.
4. Don't pull out crooked permanent teeth easily.
Children's tooth extraction skills
Usually, parents should let their children develop good oral habits, eat less candy and other foods that are bad for their teeth, and avoid tooth problems.
Matters needing attention after tooth extraction in children
* * *1* * Eat correctly.
Children are younger and like to eat cold food, but they are not allowed to eat within 24 hours after tooth extraction. If they eat something, they can easily cut, cause bleeding and even cause swelling of their teeth.
***2*** Clean up correctly.
Some children have developed the good habit of brushing their teeth every day, but they must pay attention after tooth extraction. It is best not to brush your teeth and rinse your mouth for 24 hours, which will hurt your teeth, prolong the healing time of your teeth and lead to dry socket.
***3*** Cold compress the wound
There may be some pain after tooth extraction. At this point, if the cotton ball is not pressed, it will still swell after tooth extraction. At this time, we can apply the teeth with ice packs or towels, which can eliminate the swelling.
Matters needing attention in children's tooth replacement
1, permanent teeth erupt and deciduous teeth need to be pulled out.
Usually, the deciduous teeth will fall off by themselves before the permanent teeth erupt, but some children will show that the permanent teeth have grown out now, while the corresponding deciduous teeth are stubborn and unwilling to "give way", forcing the permanent teeth to grow out of the inner side of the deciduous teeth, forming a "double-layer tooth". Experts pointed out that when presenting double-layer teeth, the deciduous teeth should be pulled out, otherwise the teeth will be placed incorrectly and the occlusion will be incorrect.
2, eating too much is easy to present "double teeth"
It is understood that the main reasons why most children present "double-layered teeth" today are that the diet is too precise, the chewing function of teeth is reduced, and the jaw bone is underdeveloped. Chewing food can promote the growth, development, natural absorption and shedding of deciduous roots. So parents should let their children eat more fruits and vegetables, such as celery, peanuts, apples, sugar cane and other chewy foods.
3. Let children get rid of bad habits such as licking their teeth.
Children often lick loose deciduous teeth or new permanent teeth with their tongues when changing teeth, so that there will be gaps between teeth. Many primary school students like to bite hard objects such as pencils in their mouths, which is easy to form regional small opening and closing deformity of teeth. Because the deciduous teeth are missing when changing teeth, the child will eat the other side. If parents don't correct it for a long time, it will cause facial asymmetry.
