What to do if your 27-month-old baby has tooth decay and toothache?

According to a national oral health survey conducted by the National Dental Disease Prevention Guidance Group, 90% of children suffer from tooth decay. In addition, due to lifestyle changes, there are more and more children with crooked teeth.

In the outpatient setting, it is not uncommon for children with bottle caries to occur. Newborn babies are mainly fed with milk, and after the eruption of baby teeth, because they are not yet able to clean their teeth, bacteria are easy to breed in the mouth to metabolize and produce acidic substances, which will decay the teeth.Therefore, it is best for parents to give their babies some boiled water after each feeding to keep their mouths clean.

Many parents think that their children are small and do not know how to brush their teeth, in fact, children's oral cleaning should start from the baby's first teeth, that is, from about 6 months to the baby to "brush teeth" - parents use clean gauze to wrap their index finger in clean water to help the baby clean the mouth, this oral care method generally lasts two and a half years of young children; From the age of two and a half, parents should choose a toothbrush for their children at this age, twice a day in the morning and evening, stand behind the child, teach the child to master the correct brushing method, and at the age of 3, after half a year of training, the child should be able to complete the brushing action independently.

However, at this time, children still lack initiative and consciousness, parents should not neglect the role of supervision and guidance, and help children develop good oral hygiene habits, so that children can have a pair of healthy and beautiful teeth. In addition, if the mother can pay attention to eating more foods that promote tooth development during pregnancy, the calcification of the baby teeth will be high when the baby teeth erupt after birth, and it is not easy to form caries.
