The Problem With Kids
One of the major reasons for malformed teeth among kids in their early age is thumb-sucking. Also, there's another problem, which we've found is "baby bottle tooth decay". It occurs when a child falls asleep with a bottle containing milk, juice, or any liquid other than water. This can even lead to premature decay on the primary teeth of your baby. Also, such a condition can affect the formation of proper permanent teeth. So, it's important to not let them have a pacifier or a bottle while going to sleep.
Teething indicates that your child's gums are experiencing discomfort, which is entirely normal. You can alleviate this discomfort by allowing the baby to chew on a teething ring or gently massaging their gums with the back of a small spoon, a piece of damp gauze, or even your finger. For infants under the age of 4, teething rings and pacifiers are safe options to address oral needs and relieve gum pain. However, beyond the age of 4, the use of pacifiers is generally discouraged as they may impede proper tooth development.
