Is your child teething? Has your child had a new tooth? What is the difference between deciduous teeth and permanent teeth? …The Sorrow of a Permanent Tooth There was a news report that a dentist mistakenly took a child\’s permanent tooth for a deciduous tooth and forcibly removed it. Later, the dentist was fired… It sounds really scary. Recently, another mother mistakenly shook her child\’s permanent teeth for deciduous teeth, causing the child to cry out in pain… Only then did the mother realize that she had shaken the wrong tooth. Why do permanent teeth always get injured? The mother said: Because they are all teeth, you can’t tell them apart? ! In the past few days, the parent group has been buzzing with chatter about two topics closely related to the children. ● Are your child’s deciduous teeth loose? ● Can you tell which deciduous tooth is which permanent tooth? ● Why do my child’s deciduous teeth and permanent teeth look the same? There are two sets of teeth in a person\’s life, deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. The deciduous teeth begin to erupt about 6 months after the baby is born, and all 20 deciduous teeth have erupted by about 3 and a half years old. They are responsible for aesthetics, pronunciation, chewing, and inducing the eruption of permanent teeth. The deciduous teeth on each side of the jaw are symmetrical. The middle incisors are scientifically called deciduous central incisors, the lateral incisors are scientifically called deciduous lateral incisors, and the last two back teeth are scientifically called first deciduous molars and second deciduous molars. The back teeth are the teeth responsible for chewing and must be well protected. Between the ages of 6 and 12, deciduous teeth gradually fall out, and permanent teeth gradually erupt. During this period, a mixed dentition is formed with both deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. Slowly, all the deciduous teeth fall out and are replaced by permanent teeth. 4 Differences Between the Two Teeth Brothers When a child has a mixed dentition with both deciduous teeth and permanent teeth in his mouth, how to distinguish deciduous teeth from permanent teeth? According to the color, deciduous teeth are white and permanent teeth are slightly yellow. This is because the enamel of permanent teeth is more calcified and more transparent than the enamel of deciduous teeth, and the yellow color of dentin is transmitted through. According to the shape, the crowns of deciduous teeth are shorter than the crowns of permanent teeth with the same name. From infancy to adolescence, the jaws gradually grow and grow, and the capacity of the mouth expands accordingly. Therefore, the crowns of newly erupted permanent teeth are larger than those of the deciduous teeth of the same name. According to the size of the gap between the teeth, the neck of the deciduous teeth is thinner than the neck of the permanent teeth, and is significantly reduced. Therefore, the boundary between the crown and root of deciduous teeth is much clearer than that of permanent teeth. The wear of the occlusal surface of deciduous teeth is more serious than that of permanent teeth. This is because the permanent teeth have just erupted or erupted shortly, and the occlusal surface has not yet been worn or has little wear. Deciduous teeth are less calcified and harder than permanent teeth, and they are used for a longer period of time, so they wear more seriously. In addition, they can be distinguished from the pulp chambers of extracted teeth. The pulp chamber of deciduous teeth is larger, the apex angle of the pulp chamber is higher, the root canal is wider, and the root branching angle is larger than that of permanent teeth. The connection between the two brothers of teeth. Although deciduous teeth cannot escape the fate of falling out in the end, they have a great impact on the health of children\’s permanent teeth. Note that it is very important to take good care of each of your baby\’s deciduous teeth. Many parents think that it doesn’t matter if the deciduous teeth are decayed, as they will fall out and new permanent teeth will grow in anyway. As everyone knows, deciduous teeth are an important part of children\’s chewing organs. Deciduous deciduous teeth lose their chewing function and have an impact on the development of the jaw, the growth of permanent teeth, and even digestion and absorption. Moreover, the eruption of deciduous teeth to permanent teethIt also acts as a \”guide\”. For example: when a child reaches about 6 years old, the first permanent molar erupts smoothly in the place of the second deciduous molar, and the teeth can be arranged neatly. If the second deciduous molar is lost prematurely, the first permanent molar will lose its \”guide\” when it erupts, and it will shift mesially, partially occupying the position of the original second deciduous molar, or tilt mesially, and the permanent teeth will be lost. Misalignment may occur. In the same way, if the permanent teeth erupt into an abnormal position due to lack of space, the misalignment of the permanent teeth will become aggravated. Regardless of deciduous teeth or permanent teeth, parents must help their children to protect their teeth, because good teeth mean good appetite, and all snackers need a good set of teeth!
