The jaws of children are developing. If the back teeth are missing, the lower 1/3 of the missing teeth will be shortened, making the face shape asymmetrical. If the tooth is missing for too long, the upper and lower alveoli lose the normal occlusal relationship for a long time, and the jaw lacks physiological functional stimulation, which can cause the jaw to absorb and shrink.
The timely replacement of missing teeth in children is very important for their development and growth. The important function of teeth is to suck and chew food. Children lacking teeth cannot chew food well, which affects the absorption of nutrients and increases the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. Over time, it can cause gastrointestinal diseases such as indigestion. Secondly, teeth have the function of assisting pronunciation, especially the front incisors, which are more important for children to learn accurate and clear pronunciation. Missing front teeth, air leakage, and slurred speech.
