How to prevent tooth decay in 8 year old children

After brushing your teeth with fluoride toothpaste, it is best to rinse your mouth with foam in your mouth for two or three minutes to allow the foam to flow between your lips and teeth before spitting it out. At this time, the fluoride ions are dissolved in the foam and are very easily absorbed by the teeth, especially in the areas of microscopic cavities. Do not swallow.

With this method, I used to have a mouth full of plaque, but now I don't have it. And it strengthens weak teeth.

2. Brush your teeth, use horizontal brushing for the chewing surface, and vertical brushing for the inner and outer sides of the teeth (i.e., tongue and cheek).

3. Use a fluoride mouthwash every 3 days, the mouthwash can penetrate deep between the teeth that is difficult to reach with toothpaste to remove tartar and plaque. No need to multi-use.

4. Brush your teeth after meals. If you can't do it, rinse your mouth with warm water after a meal, and instead of rinsing it casually and spitting it out, you should rinse it vigorously in your mouth 100 times to make it work. Rinse your mouth after snacking as well.

It is recommended that you buy a few toothache fruits (not medicine, a plant fruit) to try, anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving + removing toothworms! Use it regularly to prevent tooth worms**. **There are some for sale!

In the end, it is necessary to take precautions, pay attention to oral hygiene, and eat less sweets.

1. Pay attention to oral hygiene. This is the key to preventing "worm teeth", develop the habit of brushing your teeth in the morning and evening, and rinse your mouth after meals.

2. Improve the dietary structure and balance the diet. Eating different foods such as fruits, dairy products, grains, vegetables, meat, eggs and other foods rich in vitamins, calcium, phosphorus, fluoride, and eating less foods with high sugar content can help with dental health.

3. Go to the hospital regularly for oral examination. It is best to go to the dental hospital every six months for oral examination, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early **.

First of all, you should go to a regular dental hospital for a comprehensive oral examination and fill the decayed tooth.

Secondly, the usual daily care, brushing your teeth every morning and evening, the time is about three minutes, not too short. You can't eat again after brushing your teeth at night. Floss your teeth at least once a day.

Because the jaw bone of children at this age is developing, the size of the tooth does not change after eruption, and the gap between the teeth becomes larger, so brushing with a toothbrush alone at this age cannot meet the needs.

Then I go to the hospital every three months to six months for a full tooth review. Proper consideration may be given to full-mouth fluoride.

Medications**Medications can be taken after tooth decay in children, and this method can be used to achieve good results for cavities that do not form cavities. For deciduous teeth, silver diamine fluoride can be used, and permanent teeth can be coated with sodium fluoride paste for caries. After caries with drugs, there will be a chance of tooth decay.

Therefore, it is recommended to recheck it every six months.

Filling**Children can also use fillings after tooth decay, which is the main method of tooth decay and is mainly used for teeth that have formed cavities. The concept of the filling method is to completely remove the decayed tissue, at which point there will be a cavity, and finally clean and disinfect the filling material to prevent the tooth from entering, so that the appearance of the tooth defect can be restored, so that the cavity does not continue to develop.

Mineralization**Children can also use caries tissue remineralization after tooth decay**, mineralization is through the artificial preparation of calcium, phosphorus, fluoride mineralization solution, and then act on the tooth to fill the tooth lesion area tissue with some mineralization. This process is known as remineralization. This method is only suitable for incipient caries.

This method is relatively simple, the effect is relatively good, and the child has no pain.

Children's tooth decay should also be carried out in the dental department**, you should first talk to the child about the dangers of tooth decay, and the benefits of going to the dental department, so that the child can cooperate well when going to the dental department**.

If the child has simple caries, it can be cleaned and filled directly, and if it is bad to the nerves, it also needs to be done, and it is necessary to go to the follow-up several times. Otherwise, the nerve will become inflamed to the tip of the root, and then the inflammation will be severe, which will affect the tooth eruption. The pain child suffers as well.

The 8-year-old child already has permanent teeth erupting, it is recommended to do pit and fissure sealing for caries prevention, and when you go home, you should teach the child to brush his teeth in the morning and evening, so that he can develop a good habit.

It must be filled, and in the long run, there will be no good permanent teeth without a good baby tooth. In the near term, tooth decay in deciduous teeth affects the health of the body more, because the apical hole of deciduous teeth is particularly wide, that is to say, the blood circulation of deciduous teeth is particularly rich, and the toxins produced by lactobacilli and Streptococcus mutant deformed cavities are not very harmful to the stomach, but the negative effect of entering the pulp can directly enter the blood circulation due to rich blood vessels, and the negative effect can not be underestimated. It's just that for the time being, there has not been a lot of attention in China, the lack of manpower and material resources in publicity, and natural people have not realized the seriousness of the harm of tooth decay in baby teeth.

It is important to go to the dental hospital to clean and fill up, and it is also important to develop good living habits on a daily basis.
