Do children's teeth change all at once? At what age do children start to change their teeth?

Most of us have experienced the replacement of teeth, but many people have forgotten how and when they replace teeth, so when you have children, you may not notice when your children are replacing teeth. So here we want to understand whether all children's teeth are replaced? At what age do children start to replace teeth?

Children's teeth are replaced completely, and all 20 deciduous teeth must be replaced. For children, most children begin to lose their deciduous teeth after the age of six, and permanent teeth erupt. It is not ruled out that some deciduous teeth are retained. Six-year-old children can start to have six-year-old teeth, so some parents mistakenly believe that the six-year-old teeth will be replaced. Children around six years old need to have pit and fissure sealing to prevent caries. Because the tooth that grows out when the child is six years old is the six-year-old tooth, it will not be replaced during the tooth replacement period, and this is an important tooth for chewing food, so dental care is very important. People have two sets of teeth, divided into deciduous teeth and permanent teeth. When they are replaced with permanent teeth, they will not be replaced again. It is recommended that children should not eat sweet foods, such as chocolate, candy, cream cakes, etc. during the tooth replacement period to prevent caries; at the same time, they should maintain good oral hygiene habits and develop the habit of brushing their teeth every day to avoid periodontal disease or dental calculus. If there is a problem with the teeth, parents should take their children to a regular dental hospital for treatment in time. If caries occur in deciduous teeth, they can be treated by repairing, tooth extraction, etc.

Children usually need to be around six or seven years old before they will start to change their teeth. During the period of tooth replacement, you need to pay attention to keeping the oral cavity clean and hygienic, which can effectively avoid oral infections. At the same time, you also need to pay attention to increasing the intake of nutrients, which can effectively avoid abnormal teething. When children are teething, you need to avoid touching their teeth with your hands to prevent the possibility of buck teeth. At the same time, you need to pay attention to whether the deciduous teeth hinder the growth of permanent teeth. If so, you need to extract the teeth in time. You need to pay attention to drinking plenty of water, and try to eat a light diet, and try to avoid spicy and irritating foods.

If you find that your child's teeth are crooked during the period of tooth replacement, you should correct them in time. The golden period for children's tooth correction is 5-12 years old. At this time, the child's jaw is in the development period and has strong plasticity. For reasonable correction, you only need to wear the corrector at night when sleeping, which will not affect the child's life and study at all. If the child is corrected after the age of 12, there is no difference from adult correction. After the child starts to change his new teeth, parents should often observe the growth of the child's new teeth. Some children have bad habits such as sticking out their tongues, sucking their fingers, licking their teeth, biting pencils, and biting their lips when they are teething and changing their teeth. Parents should correct them in time, or take their children to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and symptomatic treatment. Do not use tonics, hormones and other methods to promote tooth growth, otherwise it will bring adverse consequences. Otherwise, it will cause the teeth to grow crooked, affecting the child's tooth bite ability and the beauty of the teeth.

Children generally start to replace their teeth at around 6 years old, and complete the replacement of deciduous teeth to permanent teeth between 6 and 13 years old. It usually takes several months for deciduous teeth to loosen and fall out. Nowadays, children's food is generally too refined, which has little chewing stimulation on teeth, causing the baby's teeth to loosen and then fall out for too long. It is best not to shake the deciduous teeth with your hands to avoid causing gingivitis. If the permanent teeth have erupted and the deciduous teeth are retained and affect the child's eating, they can be removed in time. During the period of tooth replacement, pay attention to eating more hard foods, such as apples, beef, etc., which can promote the shedding of deciduous teeth.
