the practice of caring your teeth to keep them healthy. By taking preventive measures, we can avoid tooth cavities, malocclusions, plaque and gum problems.<\/p><p>Habits Many habits in the child can be detrimental for oral health. Some of the habits in children that need immediate care are :<\/p><p>1) Thumb sucking<br \/>2) Mouth breathing<br \/>3) Tongue thrusting<br \/>4) Bruxism or grinding of teeth<br \/>5) Nail biting or Lip biting<\/p><p>Whenever parents come across such habits in their children, they should immediately report to their child dentist. Their dentist will identify the underlying cause and will help the children to correct the habit. If the habit is left untreated it can lead to the following problems:<\/p><p>1) Flaring of upper front teeth<br \/>2) Pain in TMJ<br \/>3) Retrusion of lower front teeth<br \/>4) Open bite<br \/>5) Deep bite<br \/>6) Increased overjet or horizontal overlap<br \/>7) Dryness of mouth<br \/>8) Wear of teeth<\/p><p>To avoid all these problems, your dentist will guide you how to manage with these problems so that they can be corrected as early as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fec6baa elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fec6baa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.16.0 - 14-09-2023 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Mouthguards <\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4271377 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4271377\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid dt-default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div id=\"ultimate-heading-406265b737b83f82f\" class=\"uvc-heading ult-adjust-bottom-margin ultimate-heading-406265b737b83f82f uvc-5616 uvc-heading-default-font-sizes\" data-hspacer=\"no_spacer\" data-halign=\"left\"><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\" data-ultimate-target=\".uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-406265b737b83f82f .uvc-sub-heading \" data-responsive-json-new=\"{&quot;font-size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;line-height&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\"><p>Sports injuries are the major cause of injuries in teenagers.

So the dentist coat the child\u2019s teeth with fluoride solution or gel so that teeth become more resistant to acid attack.
