In the articles we have written so far, we have talked about advanced and new technologies necessary for us to re-establish that health after our oral and dental health has deteriorated.
Oral and dental health is shaped and gains importance while still in the womb. During the pregnancy period, the mother-to-be should provide a diet that will make the baby’s bony development healthy. During pregnancy, the child should not have to use drugs that will negatively affect any stage in the development of the baby. In addition, all health problems before pregnancy as well as oral and dental problems should be taken care of for both their own health and the health of the baby during pregnancy. In order for the baby’s calcium metabolism to function properly from birth, necessary sensitive nutrition, vitamin and mineral support (fluorine, A, Dvitamins, Ca etc.) should be provided under the control of a physician. etc) should be avoided. The eruption of the first milk teeth in babies is between 6-9 months. After this period starts, conditions should be created to keep the baby’s body defense system as high as possible. These conditions can be provided in the best way under the control of a pediatrician. When it reaches the baby, it should be cleaned with a brush by the baby. At home, individuals other than the baby and the child (parents, nanny, grandparents, etc.) should brush their teeth regularly in order to set a good example for the child.
The child should be introduced to the dentist at a young age and routine checks should be made. If there is a problem, it should be treated without further progress. Also, the fear of the dentist should not be reflected to the child during this process and bad experiences should not be told. The first permanent tooth (the first molar) erupts around the age of 6 in children. The anterior incisors begin to appear around the age of 7. This period is very important in terms of both the health of the teeth that will remain in the mouth for life and the orthodontic problems that may occur in the future. In terms of oral health and oral health, frequent snacking, intense carbohydrate and sugary foods should be restricted as much as possible, and children (undoubtedly adults) should definitely brush their teeth after consuming such foods.
