Background and details
Dr. Gema Olmos. Ortoperio Clinic
These are some of the clinical situations that orthodoncista can correct at an early age and it's important that if children have this type of bite, they come to a review with an orthodoncista. If these problems are identified in a timely manner, they can be treated and with a positive result.
- Protrusion: teeth very inclined forward
- Upper teeth far ahead of lower teethso that there's an increased distance between the top and bottom, leading to that lower lip intermittent with teeth upper and lower.
Example of an increased highlight: The distance between the top and bottom is increased. At times an intersectitious orthodontics or orthodontics treatment are necessary to prevent an enlarged problem.
- Open dung: The upper teeth do not cover those at the bottom, the vertical distance between them is increased. That favours the interposition of the tongue that in turn exacerbates the problem. At an early age and if it's of dentary origin, correction is simple but if the tongue isn't interacted and the interposition affects the bones in formation and becoming a skeletal problem may require surgery in the future.
Example of an open bite: upper and lower teeth do not contact.
- Inverted pardon:At biting, the teeth above are put behind them at the bottom (biting upside down). The success of treatment is far greater at an early age.
- Filling: When a clear space problem can be found at these ages, an expansion plate or space maintenance can be used to best use the space earned during dentary replacement of the lateral sectors (milk teeth are wider than the final presmolates that replace them, that space can be used using simple orthodontics, if that space isn't lost).
Example of passing and cross-bites of an earlier tooth. The lack of space has caused one of the lower incisors to move forward, if the trauma that occurs after closing will lead to a loss of gums at the lower incisor.
- Deep dung :At biting, his teeth above cover up his teeth about completely with those at the bottom.
- Cross-milling of back teeth :The teeth above are inside them at the bottom.
Example of lateral cross-bite: At the left the upper teeth bite "inside" from the lower ones.
- Important delay in some piece's rash: If a tooth takes a long time to get out, we have to rule out something that's impeding his rash (for example, the roots of another tooth, or a mesids (an extra malformed tooth that stands in his way). It can be a mere delay or even a shortcoming of a tooth.
Orthodontics children: FRESUTING QUESTS
My son's been put out with a final tooth after a milk tooth. Is that normal?
The germs of the final teeth are often found behind the milk teeth, so it's often that if the milk tooth has not been dropped the permanent rash from behind. It usually gets better by itself because his tongue pushes him to his place once his milk tooth drops or gets extracted.
At how old should they stop using a child's pacifier?
At best 2 years old. Prolonged use of the pacifier can inhibit the growth of the alveolar bone that holds the teeth and cause changes in the position of the front teeth. That's how an open bite takes place.
My child sucks his finger and his teeth have been deformed what can be done?
Sometimes by eliminating the habit of digital suction, teeth regains their position by restoring the balance between the muscle forces that exercise their tongue and lips. If this isn't true, it's best to get him to an orthodoncist to correct his bite.
My child breathes through his mouth can his or her mouth development be affected?
Yeah. The mouth's breathing remains interopen and his low tongue thus lose his or her morphodynamic capacity that would allow a proper cross-sectional development of the maxillary (palate) leading to later cross-necks. In more extreme cases, mouth breathing will result in skeletal and dentary changes that will affect the face of an individual and become longer.
