Why are baby teeth so important?
To start a healthy life, children need healthy teeth. Teeth are formed at the same time as the bones of the face. A baby's facial features are strongly influenced by dental health. Teeth are critical to proper development. The effects of baby teeth on their permanent teeth are described below.
Baby teeth are like tiny can openers which help in preventing an array of dental problems. These tiny teeth have important functions to perform in the human body. Waiting for it to be eliminated with the age can lead to many health issues such as sagging, misshapen teeth, bad breath, and more.
Baby teeth are the first teeth that appear in a child's mouth. They are also known as deciduous (or primary) teeth, meaning they were the first permanent teeth to appear in your child's mouth. These baby teeth erupt during the third through sixth years of life and begin to fall out around 16 years old if not earlier. Those who have never had experience with baby teeth will be surprised to see how important they are while they are still attached to your child's jaw; they play vital roles in many of your child's daily activities and later in her adult life.
A baby tooth is a small, sharp crystalline structure formed in the jawbone of a young child. The presence of baby teeth facilitates the movement and general development of newborns.
The human body is made up of many systems and most of these systems are essential for health and well-being. The teeth play a very important role in improving the overall health of the body.
