Dentist Milton Keynes Do Crowded Teeth Affect My Child?
The first signs of crowded mouth are:-
- Constantly open mouth
- Eating noisily with their mouth open
- Grinding their teeth (awake or asleep)
- Adult teeth coming through crooked
The causes of crowded mouth are often said to be genetic but Milton Keynes Dentist Dr Teresa says “it’s more likely to be lack of growth”.
This can be caused by:-
- Actions of the muscles in their mouth
- Mouth breathing
- Tongue thrusting
- Reverse swallowing
- Thumb or dummy sucking
Can crowded mouth be prevented or corrected? YES !
The best treatment starts early, before your child has all their permanent teeth in place! The older they get before treatment, the more complex and expensive treatment can become.
