Many parents often have this question: "We brush our children's teeth every day, why do we still have so many rotten teeth?"”

Tooth decay, commonly known as "rotten teeth", is a common oral disease that is mainly caused by bacteria eroding the teeth. As parents become more aware of dental protection, fewer children are being taken to the hospital for fillings. Many parents think that after the teeth are filled, there will be no more "rotten teeth". However, this is not the case. Why is that?

First of all, let's understand the reasons for children's repeated "rotten teeth":

1.Most of the children are baby teeth, the degree of mineralization of baby teeth is lower than that of permanent teeth, and they are more prone to decay, and children like to eat sweets, and the sugar in sweets can provide nutrition for the pathogenic bacteria of teeth, and children can not pay attention to oral hygiene as adults, although the existing caries has been treated in the hospital, but if you do not pay attention to oral hygiene, bacteria re-attached, and will naturally repeatedly "rot teeth";

2.Children's diet Xi habits are not good, some children like to eat sticky or hard food, easy to stick out of the filling material or bite cracking, without the protection of the filling material, "rotten teeth" will start again;

3.Some children themselves are susceptible to caries, and parents and individuals do not pay attention to oral hygiene, resulting in "rotten teeth".

So, how can you prevent repeated "rotten teeth"?

1.Eat less sweets, pay attention to oral hygiene, common ways are: brushing teeth, flossing, regular fluoride, pit and fissure sealing, regular visits to the dentist, etc.;

2.If the decayed area is relatively large or the baby tooth after the root canal is done, there is still some time before the baby tooth replacement, we recommend crown repair to reduce the rate of bacterial attachment.

Tips: To avoid repeated "rotten teeth", parents should assist children to prevent the growth of oral bacteria and the occurrence of caries by insisting on traditional preventive measures such as brushing teeth, flossing, and regular fluoride.

At the same time, parents should also take their children to the hospital for oral examinations on a regular basis to detect dental diseases in time.
