Oral and Dental Health in Babies

Since milk teeth should remain in the mouth until the permanent teeth come, the teeth should be cleaned with gauze or a soft toothbrush from the 6th month when the first teeth start to erupt. Mild fever, rash and discomfort around the mouth are normal during the eruption periods. To reduce these symptoms, light massage, gingiva scratches and various pomade derivative drugs can be applied to the gums.

When Is The Eruption Of Milk Teeth Completed?

The first teeth are usually the lower anterior incisors and they start to erupt around the 6th month. The eruption of all milk teeth should be completed in the 24th month and there should be a total of 20 teeth in the mouth.

What Is Baby Bottle Tooth Decay?

When babies are left to sleep with a bottle, if there is sugary liquids or milk in the bottle, caries may occur, especially on the front teeth, due to continuous exposure. To avoid this situation, sugar or honey should not be added to the bottle and long-term contact of the child with a liquid other than water should be prevented.
