Misaligned teeth caused by bad habits can cause many bad habits in children with dental and jaw deformities. Parents, kindergarten and school teachers should understand them, which is of great significance to the prevention of dental deformities in children.
1. Finger-sucking habits: lead to malocclusion, narrow dental arch, high arched palate, protruding upper front teeth, open lip exposed teeth and distal malocclusion and other deformities, and calluses and digital curvature may also appear on the fingers.
2. Bad tongue sticking habit: can form partial open bite of anterior teeth; tongue licking habit can make the anterior teeth tilt to the labial side and cause gaps; tongue sticking habit can easily cause anterior teeth open bite and mandibular protrusion deformity.
3. Bad habit of biting the lower lip: it can cause the upper front teeth to be tilted towards the lip and the interdental space, the lower front teeth are inclined and crowded on the lingual side, and the facial expression is open lips and teeth, the upper front teeth are protruding and the lower front teeth are retracted, etc. The habit of biting the upper lip is easy to form deformities such as mandibular protrusion and anterior crossbite.
4. Bite Habits: Small open bites can be formed in specific parts of the dental arch.
5. Mouth breathing habits: It can cause narrow upper dental arch, high arched palate, protruding or crowded maxillary anterior teeth, and even lead to open lips and teeth, gingival hypertrophy, and bleeding gums. Experts remind: early correction of children’s bad oral habits can play an effective preventive role in dentition deformity.
