What parents should pay attention to when a baby has toothache

Approximately three years in children the formation of the roots of the baby teeth ends. But then they gradually "dissolve" from the "offensive" (pressure) of permanent teeth, temporary drop out, and in their place

begin to erupt root.

When a baby has toothache, in the wellsthe hillocks or the edges of the cutting constants are viewed. Normally, after the eruption of all "milkmaids," there should be no gaps between them (cracks appear and expand as the jaw grows). This is logical: after all, permanent teeth are larger in size than temporary ones, and they need more space (otherwise they will grow curved). The lack of space can be evidenced by the belated appearance of a permanent tooth on the dairy site. In such cases, the help of an orthodontist is needed, which by means of special procedures will "facilitate" eruption.

At a time when the baby has toothacheand there is a resorption of their roots, the pulp is replaced by granulation tissue, which is involved in the process of dissolution of the roots. Treatment of temporary teeth is fundamentally different from treatment of permanent teeth, has its own specifics.

A little at different times, but all parents have a question about how many years the baby's teeth fall out. Usually this process begins at the age of 6 and ends by 12-13 years.

First, as a rule, the sixth teeth fall out,then the central and lateral incisors, later - the fourth, the fangs, the fifth, the seventh, then the eighth. The final formation of the "root system" of permanent chewing organs occurs by 10-15 years, and the apparatus itself by 15-18 years.

Parents should understand: the period when the baby's teeth fall out is a small psychological test, although the process itself is practically painless, only a slight increase in temperature is possible. However, since all the children have the same time periods for the change of teeth, among the peers there often arise on this ground peculiar competitions: "Who will" update the mouth "faster" and the children begin to "speed up" the process by independently loosening and removing their milk teeth. This can not be done! Such an intervention is fraught with infection and the ability to break a tooth (the consequences can be extremely unpleasant, and sometimes even dangerous). Therefore, when a baby has toothache, it is necessary to talk to him and explain that there is no place for any independent activity, only then the new ones will grow beautiful, even and healthy. The only exception is when the "milkman" is already really "hanging by a thread" (then you can remove it with your own, but with clean hands).

If the child complains of inconvenience, and the tooth is simplystaggers, you need to contact the dentist for the most secure removal. Thus, the period when the baby's teeth fall out should not be a cause for particular concern, parents need only a timely explanation of the situation and little control.
