BAD BREATH
Bad breath comes from a buildup of bacteria in the mouth that feeds on leftover food and plaque and emits smelly hydrogen sulfide. Variety of causes, including dry mouth, poor oral hygiene, and digestive issues.
SENSITIVE TEETH
Child experiences discomfort from hot or cold foods or air, he or she may have sensitive teeth. children can get it because of their thinner enamel, which is susceptible to wearing down faster from plaque.
BABY TEETH NOT LOOSENING
Sometimes baby teeth don’t fall out, also called over-retained primary teeth. Usually, this happens because there is no permanent tooth to replace the baby tooth.
GUM DISEASE
Children can also suffer from gum disease, called gingivitis. This inflammation of the gums is caused by poor dental hygiene which can eventually lead to bone loss.
