Baby oral care is a care that should not be neglected in order to avoid problems in terms of oral and dental health in later ages. In order to prevent thrush that may occur in the mouth in newborn babies, the mother can clean the baby’s mouth by dipping a tiny gauze pad in clean water after breastfeeding.
Babies generally cut their first teeth from the 6th month. Usually the first teeth tend to emerge from the lower front part. After these teeth, the upper incisors, which are opposite, emerge. When it comes to the 24- and 36-month periods, a total of 20 milk teeth will come out. Oral care in babies should be started from the first teething period. Dental apparatus and products specially designed for babies can be used.
We can list the causes of dental decays, which are seen at an early age when the tooth enamel is much thinner and softer:
- Eating foods that contain mainly carbohydrates such as sugar and starch
- Genetic factors
- Not paying attention to oral and dental hygiene
Braces can be used for orthodontic treatment in children as well as in adults. Orthodontic treatment is applied to children as well as adults. First, the tooth surfaces are cleaned with special hygiene providers. A square metal piece called braces and brackets is attached to the tooth surface with special adhesives. After the brackets are placed on the desired teeth, the braces that will connect the brackets are placed in the spaces in the brackets. The teeth are connected with each other. Since braces can be applied on permanent teeth, the child’s starting time for treatment is determined by the orthodontist. Thus, the treatment is completed within the optimum process.

Bottle decays can be treated. At this point, advanced treatments are possible. However, in extremely advanced cases, the treatment of these decays can be difficult. Therefore, it is important to make an early diagnosis at the first stage. In case of delay, teeth may need to be extracted.
In the treatment of baby bottle decays, decays are removed and the treatment takes place. After the treatment, it is necessary to make sure that the child does not eat sweet foods.
