🦷 WHY MILK TEETH MATTER!
Many believe milk teeth are unimportant because they “fall out anyway.” But this is one of the biggest myths in dentistry!
⸻
✅ Milk teeth play crucial roles:
• Maintain proper spacing in the jaw
• Guide permanent teeth into correct alignment
• Help in chewing, nutrition & speech
• Support jaw & facial growth
⸻
🚫 If neglected:
• Cavities & infections can spread to developing permanent teeth
• Early loss may cause drifting of nearby teeth → crowding & misalignment
• Pain & swelling can affect eating, sleep & learning
⸻
🌟 Remember: Caring for milk teeth is the foundation of lifelong oral health.
• Start brushing from the first tooth
• Visit a dentist by age 1 year
• Prevent problems that last well beyond childhood
