Orthodontics “beautician

At present, the majority of the population has malocclusion deformities, and malocclusion deformities are mostly manifested as crowded, uneven, protruding teeth, and abnormal occlusion. In life, malocclusion has become a “heart disease” for many patients, because it not only directly affects the beauty of the face, but also affects chewing function, and even affects interpersonal communication.

Xiao Li, an attending physician in the Department of Stomatology, Panyu Central Hospital, studied at Nanchang University in Orthodontics from 2006 to 2009 and obtained a master’s degree. She has rich clinical experience and is good at treating children, adolescents, and adults with various tooth irregularities and facial Developmental deformities, floating teeth, pocket teeth, etc. She has been committed to the professional treatment of malocclusion and other orthodontics, has a wealth of clinical practice experience, mastered and used the latest medical technology to relieve the suffering of many malocclusion patients, and has become a widely recognized oral orthodontic treatment by patients and colleagues. Abnormal “beautician”.

　　The number of orthodontic patients increases during winter vacation

　　 In the Dental Clinic of Panyu Central Hospital, the reporter interviewed Dr. Xiao Li. In the department, she is the doctor who does the most orthodontics. She pointed out that during the winter vacation that just ended, the number of orthodontic patients has increased compared to usual, especially among teenagers, and parents have paid more attention to their children’s malocclusion. It is understood that some of the patients she treats are only 4 or 5 years old, who are still in kindergarten age, and a small number of children have particularly irregular teeth. Parents took them to the hospital for treatment just after the teeth were replaced. Many parents took advantage of the age when their children graduated from elementary school and promoted to junior high school. In addition, Xiao Li is also good at treating children, adolescents, and adults with various irregular teeth, facial deformities, floating teeth, and pocket teeth. As long as she visits the doctor, there is always an endless stream of patients who come to see her.

　　 Many people think that the earlier the orthodontic treatment is done, the better. The teeth have grown very strong when they are older, and the effect of orthodontic treatment will not be very good. In this regard, Xiao Li pointed out that there is no direct relationship between age and correction. It is just that relatively old teeth move more slowly and require longer treatment. It is understood that malocclusion is more common among various tooth deformities. Xiao Li said that malocclusion is a disease related to growth and development. In most cases, it is not caused by pathological factors, but due to a certain degree of deviation in the normal growth and development process. This deviation is Most are caused by genetic factors and environmental factors. According to survey statistics, 60%-70% of malocclusions are caused by acquired environmental factors. Therefore, most malocclusions can be prevented and reduced, and malocclusions can be prevented at all stages from pregnancy to birth and growth.

　　 Correctly prevent malocclusion

　　 What aspects should be paid attention to to prevent malocclusion? Xiao Li introduced that to have healthy and beautiful teeth, parents should take all-round prevention for their children from embryonic to childhood.

　　 For example, mothers should pay attention to nutrition and health care during pregnancy, prevent maternal diseases, and avoid contact with chemicals or some drugs. If the face is under pressure in the uterus before the baby is born, it may cause facial deformation, and may also affect future facial development.

　　 In infants and young children, if the way of artificial feeding is not correct, it may also cause “full coverage”. It is recommended that parents use a nipple similar to the mother’s nipple. The opening of the nipple should not be too large, and the diameter should be 1-2 mm. After children are able to chew food, they should eat slightly harder and easy to digest food to exercise the masticatory muscles and promote the development of the chewing organs.

　　 In childhood, pay attention to the physical and mental health of the child, strengthen nutrition and pay attention to oral hygiene. A child’s deciduous teeth appear at about 2 and a half years old, and are gradually replaced by permanent teeth at the age of 6-7. During this period, if the deciduous teeth are missing, the subsequent eruption of permanent teeth will be crowded and uneven. Severe decay of the deciduous teeth will affect the child’s chewing of food. Affect the body’s nutrient absorption, parents should take their children to the hospital to fill the teeth in the early stage of deciduous teeth.

Almost all normal children have the habit of sucking their fingers in infants and toddlers. This habit has little effect in the deciduous period. However, if the habit of sucking fingers continues until the permanent teeth erupt (6-7 years old), it will appear. The upper front teeth are protruding, the front teeth gaps, the lower front teeth are lingually displaced, the upper and lower front teeth cannot be occluded normally, and the upper arches are narrow. Therefore, parents should correct their children’s bad habits in time.

　　 In addition, children have long been accustomed to sleeping on one side or tilting their head to one side when studying in class, and supporting one face with their hands, which will also cause pressure on one face and cause facial asymmetry. If children breathe through the mouth instead of the nose during sleep at night, it will change the pressure balance of the jaws and teeth, affecting the growth of the facial jaws and the position of the teeth, which manifests as the face lengthening, the front teeth opening and closing, and the upper dental arch narrowing.

　　 The above-mentioned bad habits can be corrected through parental guidance and reminders and patient persuasion. If the habit persists for a long time and it is difficult to correct, you can go to the hospital to wear movable appliances and seek medical help.
