Milk tooth extraction

Most often removal of deciduous teeth occurs in such situations:

• Severe damage to the teeth or tooth decay carious diseases;
  
• Dental disease (pulpitis, periodontitis), which cured the child is not possible;
  
• All kinds of dental cysts, including follicular;
  
• The presence of supernumerary (extra) teeth;
  
• Slow physiological root resorption, which prevents the eruption of permanent teeth, or he already cut, and the milk has not fallen;
  
• If the tooth is in a broken jaw or he broken longitudinally;
  
• By orthodontic indications (e.g., in the dental arch is insufficient space to align the bite), etc.
  

Dentists try not to delete temporary teeth. Not only because of the psycho-emotional difficulties on the part of the child, but also for other important reasons:

• Early removal of deciduous teeth (2-3 years or more before the intended physiological change) may result in distortion of occlusion;
  

Temporary tooth - "companion" for the permanent tooth bud. He shows him the way to his place in the dental arch. The root of the milk gradually dissolves, giving way to a successor. And if not, the rudiment can not simply be cut out of his place, but also to turn or change places with each other.

• The likelihood of developing speech impediment;
  

Removing the front milk teeth is often due to lack of hygiene, nursing caries and injuries of these teeth on child negligence. And without anterior articulation difficult - some say sounds impossible.

• Inadequate chewing, diseases of the joints, and digestive system;
  

- Because of the early removal of milk canines and molars (posterior) the child can not chew food properly.
- He has to use are not available for this teeth or even abandon the solids that is bad for the health of the digestive tract.
- When chewing teeth are missing, there is nothing to keep the height of the bite, so the jaws are closed deeper overloaded joints.

• Premature wear of the teeth preserved;
  

Develops because of overuse.

• The risk of maxillofacial deformities;
  

When teeth are missing and the whole dentition works in disharmony, there may be a lag in the growth of some bones. For example, the lower jaw when it is underdeveloped, formed the so-called "bird's face."

Sometimes even dangerous to keep teeth. In what situations to delay the removal of deciduous teeth in children is by no means impossible?

• Any source of chronic infection - it is a risk to the entire body. In the mouth begins the digestive path, so the microorganisms patients teeth can become the starting point for the development of gastritis, ulcers, colitis, duodenitis, pancreatitis, cholecystitis, dyspepsia, etc.
  
• Hearth dental infections can also provoke a number of diseases of ENT organs: sinusitis, sore throats and tonsillitis, otitis, and others.
  
• Severe swelling, pain - a difficult test for the child. Sometimes local and general symptoms so severe that it has to be hospitalized, put a dropper.
  
• Periodontitis or pulpitis, complicate them (children may have these two diagnoses in one tooth at a time), cysts, and other inflammatory diseases of milk teeth and surrounding tissues may threaten the health of the rudiments of permanent teeth. If they are involved in inflammation, their enamel may be affected, it will appear on the defects until complete resorption primordia.
  

If it's time to physiological change, the child can rock the baby tooth. Resorbed root and at the end of it there is only a small rim, which keeps only the mucosa.

But in some cases it may be thinner uneven and does not wobble. In order not to hurt the child, it is better to turn to a dentist - he can psychologically adjust it to distract, to provide good pain relief and quickly remove the tooth.

In pediatric dentistry removal of milk teeth are trying to perform as painlessly as possible, in the three-stage helps anesthesia:

1. First held application anesthesia - a doctor applies an anesthetic gel with a pleasant taste to the mucous membrane in the area where he plans to introduce an injection;
   
2. Syringe with a fine needle layers impregnated anesthetic outer fabric - conducted infiltration anesthesia. In pediatric dentistry it is sufficient in the overwhelming number of cases, but if you want to simultaneously remove several adjacent deciduous teeth, it is better to resort to the next step.
   
3. Conduction anesthesia - anesthetic puncture in certain nerves exit from the bone. It provides a comprehensive and long-term loss of sensitivity. Parents should monitor the child after treatment: an unusual sensation in the mouth they are curious, casual and unconsciously children often injure the mucous - bitten her.
   

As you can see, even the prick of a child does not feel so unable to protect him from unnecessary emotions.

For it to be more proud of themselves, it is desirable to prepare in advance - to buy a gift, badges, medals. These need we launched a secret pass the doctor, and he is sure to encourage the child.

Sometimes, if it is bad go to the contact, it is necessary to prepare and medication. In each case, the doctor evaluates the child's behavior and determine its readiness for treatment. If required, anesthesia or sedation required to appoint a consultation with anesthesiologists, allergists, pediatricians, surrender some tests - can not risk the health of children.

Kids need to prepare in advance. Telling stories, a lot of talk on this subject, "treat" house of dolls, praise little hero. And do not hesitate to ask the doctor tooth - in memory or just to "give a mouse."

If after removing the temporary teeth in children dentist will recommend the prosthesis, it must be necessarily hold. This will prevent psychological problems in communicating with their peers, facial asymmetry, joint disease, dentoalveolar deformation.
