The first set of teeth, or baby teeth as they are called, are twenty in number, they usually appear in pairs, and the lower jaw generally precede the corresponding top. The first milk teeth is usually reduced on the sixth or seventh month, and the last of the series at various periods of the twentieth to the thirtieth months. Thus, the entire period occupied by the teeth first be felt in May from a year and a half to two years. The process varies, however, different people, both as regards its entire duration, and the periods and the order in which the teeth are emerging. It is not necessary, however, to add more at this point.
Their development is a natural process. It is still too often, however, made a painful and difficult, for errors in the management of the regime and child health, already at the venue of the teeth, and during the process itself.
Thus, mainly as a result of good management, it is the most critical period of childhood. Not that I think the extent of mortality related to traceability, it is by any means so great as has been said, because it is noted higher than a sixth of all children who suffer this . Yet no one doubts that the first dentition is often a period of great danger to infants. It becomes a very important issue to an anxious and loving mother, how the dangers and difficulties of running can not be reduced any degree or, if possible, very preventable. A few tips on this, then, be useful May. I will examine, first, managing the child if the teeth is carried out without difficulty and, secondly, the management of the child when he attended with difficulty.
Management of the child in the teeth is without difficulty. -------------------------------------------------- ----------
In children the health of a constitution, which was which, naturally, fed on its mother's milk alone, the symptoms of teething participant will be more forgiving of nature management and child as simple and easy.
Symptoms: - The symptoms of natural teeth (which is fairly called May) are an increased flow of saliva, swelling and warmth of the gums and, at the flush on cheeks. The child often thrusts his fingers, or anything else in its scope, in its mouth. His thirst is increased, and it takes the breast more often, however, the provision of the state of gums, for shorter periods than usual. It is restless and fretful, and sudden fits of crying and sometimes from sleep, with a slight tendency to vomiting, and even the game of the intestine, are not uncommon. Many of these symptoms that often precede the appearance of the tooth several weeks, and indicate that the so-called "reproductive teeth" is underway. In such cases, symptoms disappear within a few days to recur again at the approaches to the tooth surface of the gum.
Treatment: - The management of the child in this case is very simple, and rarely calls interference doctor. The child must be outdoors and exercised: the bowels should be freely open with castor oil, and still be slightly eased at this time. Cold mop used daily, and body surface rubbed with a dry flannel rough as the delicate skin of the Child; friction be very useful. The breast should be given often, but not for long at a time, thirst will be allayed, the gums kept moist and relaxed, soothed and irritation, stomach without being overloaded. Mothers should also attend carefully at this stage of his own health and nutrition, and avoid stimulating food or drink.
From the moment where the teeth, pressure on the gums is to be pleasing to the child, dulling the numbness and pain sensitivity. To this end, coral is generally used, or a piece of iris root, or scratch the licorice root, a flat ivory ring, however, is much better and more secure, because there is no danger of his surge in eyes or nose. Sweet gums friction also by the hand of the nurse, is pleasing to the child, and as he seems to have some effect in soothe irritation, may be frequently resorted to. In France, it is very convenient for soaking the root of licorice, and other substances in honey or powdered sugar, sweets and Germany, a small bag containing a mixture of sugar and spices, is given the child to suck whenever it is fretful and uncomfortable during teething. The constant use, however, sweet and stimulating ingredients must do injury to the stomach, and makes their jobs very wrong.
