Children eat hard food can prevent tooth deformity

In recent years, the incidence of malocclusion of children's teeth is getting higher and higher. One of the important reasons is that children's food is more and more sophisticated, and children's chewing function is weakened. Experts suggest that parents give their children more “hard and wear-resistant” foods such as beef jerky and sesame seeds to ensure that their children’s teeth are tidy and healthy.

According to Liang Wei, director of the Department of Stomatology at Shenzhen Second People's Hospital, the main cause of dental malocclusion is genetic and environmental factors. Among environmental factors, acquired factors play a big role, among which degradation of chewing function is one of the main reasons. Today's children's foods are becoming more and more sophisticated, and a large number of dairy products, breads, and puffed foods have made children's chewing functions weaker and weaker. The teeth and muscles inside and outside the mouth have not been given proper exercise, resulting in muscle weakness and atrophy. Developmental abnormalities, but the number of teeth did not decrease, so the incidence of malocclusion of children's teeth is also increasing.

Liang Shu said that fine foods can easily cause dental caries, tooth defects, premature tooth loss, lack of permanent teeth eruption gap, resulting in uneven teeth. The effect of calcium supplementation on the growth of teeth and jaws during the replacement period is much lower than that of the chewing function training. The children's chewing functional training should be strengthened to fully exercise the oral muscle function, thereby effectively stimulating the growth and development of the mandible. Give your child more hard-wearing foods, such as ribs, beef jerky, sesame, casserole, dried taro and apples. After the child is about 2 years old, when the deciduous teeth are completely erupted, regular regular oral examinations should be conducted to prevent dental caries and ensure the normal eruption of permanent teeth. At the same time, children with abnormal jaw development should be treated with early intervention. (Wu Jun)
