In the past people’s concepts Think that orthodontics should wait until twelve years old The child’s teeth are changed and then performed But this concept is not rigorous Also delay a lot of children Give them great regrets There are some malformations that require early treatment That is, in the deciduous period or the tooth period You can start treatment.
Around 7 is the first golden period of orthodontics
In the summer, during the peak of orthodontics, media reported the content of the orthodontics of children and adolescents in summer, and the authority answered some parents’ questions.
The 7 -year -old is the most vigorous period of children’s growth and development,
and it is also the first golden period for correction of children’s teeth. During this period, there will be many problems with teeth switching, such as deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. At this time, we grasp the characteristics of growth and development for correction, which can not only arrange teeth, but also promote the positive development of bones. At this time, the treatment effect is the best.
What is early childhood correction?
Children’s early correction refers to prevention in the early growth stage of children (generally refers to the peak period of adolescence growth and development or peak stage) to prevent the presence of existing dental jaw deformity, deformity trend (that is, the cause of dental jaw deformity) , Block, correction and guidance treatment. It mainly includes the following three aspects: 1. Early prevention, 2. Early blocking, 3. Early growth control.
Early prevention
It refers to the system and local adverse factors that affect the changes in normal growth and development of teeth, alveolar bones, and jaw bones in time to discover and remove them in time, or correct mild abnormalities, so that the teeth and maxillofacial facilities grow harmoniously. Factors play a role in preventing the occurrence of mandibular deformities.
Early block
It refers to the teeth, teeth, occlusion relationships, and bone breeding abnormalities caused by the inherent or acquired factors caused by the milk, the inherently or preliminary manifestation of the teeth. The process makes it self -adjusting to establish a normal dental form relationship. In popular languages, if the mandibular deformity is occurring, orthodontic doctors use some measures to block the process of occurrence, thereby avoiding bad consequences.
Early growth control
Early growth control refers to children with severe jaw development and abnormal tendencies in the growth period of the growth period. Change its growth direction, space position and proportion relationship, and guide the normal growth of craniotomy and maxillofacial.
Let’s take a look at a set of photos:
In the early days of children’s growth, due to the bad habits of children, it was prone to dental problems such as teeth, deeply overcoming, and oral problems such as the ground.
At present, the popularization of the relevant knowledge about mandibular malformations in China has not been done. Most parents still think that orthodontic malice must have to wait until the 12 -year -old child is replaced. However, this is not accurate.
The age of 5 to 12 is a fast period for children to grow and develop. When sleeping, the child’s hormones secrete strong. Under the influence of growth hormones, the child’s maxillofacial and teeth are developing rapidly.
After research, the growth and development of children’s maxillofacial facial facialness completed 60%at the age of 4, 70%at the age of 7, and 90%at the age of 12.
Therefore, orthodontics at the age of 5 to 12 can achieve comfortable correction and allow the teeth to grow along the correct physiological direction.
The US orthodontics Association recommends: Children are best to conduct orthodontics before the age of 7.
To put it simply: the earlier, the shorter the time, and the less expenses required.
Correcting the dislocation of the upper and lower teeth that cannot be correctly bite, the sooner the better.
Which teeth are inconsistent with early correction
Tooth uneven refers to problems such as incomplete teeth caused by innate genetic factors or acquired environmental factors during the growth and development of children, abnormalities such as the relationship between the upper and lower teeth, abnormalities, and facial malformations. In the following situations, you need to pay attention.
Deep coverage (Deep teeth)
The upper teeth of the upper jaw protrusing abnormally, and the severe case is what we usually call the teeth.
Deep jaw
The range of the upper teeth is too large, and the serious cases can even bite the lower tooth gums.
Anti -jaw (ground bag sky)
Holding the upper teeth can cause the crescent face and affect the beauty of the face.
Jaw
When the teeth are bite or extended the front, the upper and lower teeth cannot be exposed to the vertical direction.
Crowded teeth
The amount of dental volume is greater than the bone volume and the space is not enough to arranges the tooth arrangement.
Early correction is the consensus of oral orthodontic academic circles
In the past, many parents thought that orthodontics should be after the tooth was changed (usually after 12 years of age), and now parents receive the information: “muscle function training” in advance, and no correction is needed in the future. After listening to too much, parents will be circled. When will it be the best to start correction?
The answer is the golden period of correction of teeth at 5-12. During this period, the correction of children’s teeth has the following advantages:
1. Before the child’s bones are mature, make better use of growth potential;
2. Reduce the probability of tooth extraction and reduce the probability of positive mandibular surgery;
3. Early intervention, low cost;
4. Control the abnormalities in development in time to avoid complex situations;
5. Reduce the difficulty of the second phase of treatment, the effect is better and stable;
6. Reduce the probability of recurrence.
Reminder: In order to ensure the effect of orthodontics, try to choose regular medical institutions and professional orthodontic doctors to complete orthodontic
