How can I help my child correct mouth breathing caused by habit?

There are generally 3 types of breathing patterns:

1. Mouth breathing state that cannot perform nasal breathing.

2. Although you use your nose to breathe, your mouth is always open.

3. You can breathe through the nose with your lips tightened.

The first two are mouth breathing, which is potentially harmful to the child's growth and development.

1. Lack of concentration.

Insufficient oxygen saturation in children who breathe by mouth will gradually form long-term chronic hypoxia and affect the development of the central nervous system, leading to distraction, memory loss and even mental retardation.

2. Affect sleep and growth and development.

Babies who breathe through the mouth are prone to breath-holding and sleep interruption during sleep, resulting in a decrease in deep sleep sleep time, and growth hormone secretion is difficult to reach normal levels and affects the child's growth and development.

3. Respiratory tract infection.

The nasal cavity is the first line of defense of the respiratory tract, which warms, humidifies, and filters the air. If you breathe through the mouth for a long time, the defense function of the nasal cavity cannot be exerted, and the air is directly inhaled into the lungs without being filtered, which is easy to cause respiratory infection.

4. Becoming ugly. Breathe with the mouth open for a long time, and the exhaled airflow produces continuous thrust on the upper jaw, resulting in an adenoid face, which is manifested as a short and thick upper lip, hypertrophy of the labial muscles, sunken nasal root, atrophy of the alar of the nose, disappearance of the nasolabial fold, narrowing of the dental arch, high arch of the palatine, crowded dentition, protruding upper anterior teeth, drooping mandible, and retracting deformity of the lower jaw, which seriously affects the baby's facial appearance.

How do I correct my mouth breathing? 2-year-olds 15-year-olds must correct mouth breathing as soon as possible.

1. Seek medical attention in a timely manner.

Most babies who breathe in the mouth are caused by illness. Therefore, if you find that your child has mouth breathing, you should seek medical attention in time to find the right symptoms. The illness is cured and the baby no longer breathes through the mouth.

2. Wear a special mask when sleeping.

For babies who have developed the habit of breathing through the mouth, when sleeping at night, you can put on a "small mask" with three layers of gauze, but not cover the nostrils, so as to force the baby to use nasal breathing.

3. Strength training of perioral muscles (2 15-year-old babies).

Improves breathing patterns by strengthening the perioral muscles. Generally, 3 minutes to 5 minutes of training are required every day, and parents can supervise their babies to train anytime and anywhere. For children who have developed malformed mouth breathing, early intervention or later blockade should be carried out according to age, along with correcting the bad habits of mouth breathing.

Depending on the deformity, a variety of mobility appliances are chosen.

Breathing awareness training: Close your lips, inhale deeply through your nose, and exhale deeply. Repeat the training to train nasal breathing awareness. 2 minutes per set for 3 minutes, 2 sets of 3 sets per day.

Qi training: Sit up straight, breathe through your nose, and after exhaling, pinch your nose with your fingers, hold for 2 seconds to 4 seconds, then inhale gently. 2 sets of 3 groups per day.

Labial Training: By strengthening the labial muscles, the lips naturally close and breathe through the nasal airways. There are many ways to train the lip muscles, such as pursing the lips, holding a piece of paper, or using the puff method, that is, puffing the air into the cheeks, pursing the lips tightly, and not letting the air leak out.

Tongue muscle training: tongue tip top cortex training, tongue flicking training, tongue curling training, etc.

Try to keep your child's mouth shut and breathing. Parents should pay more attention and stop their children from breathing through their mouths in time.

I think you can get him to practice breathing with his mouth closed, take him to exercise more, breathe through his nose when he runs, and also tape his upper and front lips together while he sleeps.

Let the child do lip training every day, lip training includes pouting, lip pulling, lip wrapping, each action should be insisted on for more than 5 seconds, and 10-15 groups a day will have an effect.

Parents should guide their children well when they can understand human speech, and they should also let their children slowly change their current state.

To let the child get rid of this bad problem, adjust the child's breathing pattern, let the child close his mouth, and then breathe through the nose, and have a plan to help the child improve.

After taking your child to the doctor, you can choose to wear protective gear, strengthen management and education, help your child get rid of bad habits, set a good example for your child, and learn to encourage your child.

When the child breathes, we should let the child learn to breathe through the nose, and secondly, we should also patiently educate the child and teach the child how to breathe correctly.

You should take your child to the hospital for examination and **, you can sleep with your child, and remind your child in time, so that you can correct it well.

Parents should communicate more with their children, and at the same time, they should also observe the way their children breathe, correct their children's wrong habits in time, let them adjust slowly, and give rewards and encouragement when their children perform well.

Parents should always guide their children's breathing, and should also tell their children the correct way to breathe, and should also correct their children's wrong habits frequently. Children should also be told about some of the drawbacks of mouth breathing often.

Lip muscle training can be done, and children can be consciously asked to do lip muscle training during the day, such as repeatedly using a piece of hard paper between the upper and lower lips and quickly withdrawing it, 3 times a day, 5-10 minutes each time. This can enhance the function of the child's mouth closing muscles, and the child will gradually form new muscle memory during the day, which will become a subconscious behavior, which will also help at night.

Receiving a specialist**, parents can take their child to an ENT first. If your child is breathing through his mouth because of a nasal obstruction, he or she should be diagnosed with a nasopharyngeal disorder promptly**. Breathing with your mouth closed can be trained by letting your baby whistle and blow a small horn, and promote the cleaning of the mouth and teeth through the movement of the tongue and cheeks.

After exercise, the child is used to gasping for breath, at this time parents can encourage the child to close the mouth and breathe through the nose, and persistently change the child's habit of breathing through the mouth.

Go to the hospital to receive**: There are many reasons for the baby's mouth breathing, if it is caused by nasal congestion caused by disease, it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to check**. Wear a special veil or mask:

You can use a special veil or mask to help your baby get rid of mouth breathing. Covering his mouth so that his nostrils are exposed will naturally encourage him to breathe through his nose.

Practice breathing with your mouth closed: Mom and dad can often train your baby to breathe with his mouth closed, such as teaching him to whistle, which not only allows him to get used to breathing through his nose, but also cleans his mouth and teeth. Breathe through your nose while running:

During strenuous exercise, we all unconsciously open our mouths to breathe, but this is not good. Parents should train their babies to breathe through their nose while running.

Straighten your baby's teeth: If your baby's teeth are misshapen, it can easily cause him to have to breathe through his mouth. Therefore, you should often take your baby to the dental hospital to check your teeth, and if you find any abnormalities, you should be in time.

Nowadays, air pollution is more serious, and let children develop healthy habits from an early age to help children resist germs and improve body resistance.

Once you find that your child is breathing through the mouth, you must go to a regular otolaryngology specialist for treatment in time. They will have a way**.

Let your child know that breathing through his mouth is not good for his body and let him understand the importance of health.

I think parents can correct it with their hands, such as asking their children to close their mouths.

Children prefer to breathe through their mouths, because in the process of opening their mouths, they can not only breathe a lot of fresh air, but also meet their needs for gas. However, mouth breathing can affect the child's entire facial development and physical growth. Because the child has insisted on mouth breathing for a long time, everyone should persevere, let the child close his mouth properly every day, guide the child to breathe through the nose, you can also buy tools to assist the mouth to close online, when the child's mouth is not breathing, it will naturally breathe through the nose.

There are two main aspects of mouth breathing in children, one is congenital genetic factors, and the other is that parents do not guide them correctly and do not help children understand the correct way of breathing. If it is an ordinary habit, then parents can find a small ** about this content and watch it with their children**. And learn the movements of the characters in **, then the child will naturally know the method of nose breathing, and will also imitate the characters in ** for nose breathing.

If it is a congenital genetic disease, then parents should not do unnecessary struggles, but should take the child to a specialist for examination, and must go through corrective surgery to help the child breathe correctly. Otherwise, the child's teeth will also develop abnormally, and over time, the face will be big and small, and in severe cases, there will be a positive jaw, which will endanger life. Therefore, parents must understand this aspect of knowledge and help their children to make corrections.

I hope that all parents can pay attention to it, after all, children do not know much about these aspects, if parents do not pay attention to all aspects of their children, then when children grow up and find that they are different from others, they will blame their parents. And the younger the child, the more obvious the effect will be. If you wait until you grow up, this surgery is really not very easy to do, and you even face tooth pain all the time.

Point 1: If you want to get rid of such a bad problem, you must pay attention to the way of breathing, point 2: Parents should remind their children that this way of breathing is incorrect, and point 3 should teach children a way to breathe correctly.

I think I can close my baby's mouth manually, or I can choose to use a special corrective tool or let my baby chew on the pacifier.

That's definitely a good example for the child, and you can't do that in the first place, because the child has that kind of imitative nature.

Check your baby's nose, if the nose is not breathing well, it will happen, and you should see a doctor in time.

To correct this bad habit of the child, help the child, get used to breathing through the nose, adjust the child's habits, and then the child understands that it is not right to do so.

Mouth breathing is when the child breathes not with the help of his nostrils, but with his mouth wide open. When your child breathes, you should close your child's upper and lower lips together and naturally breathe through his nose.

Mouth breathing is when a child enters sleep and breathes through the airway with their mouth open, rather than through their nose; If the child has mouth breathing, before going to bed at night, be sure to clean the child's nose to keep the nose open, or when the child has mouth breathing, use a breathing patch to stick the mouth to achieve the purpose of breathing through the nose.
