❓How does caries occur in children?
🦷Children's teeth are more prone to decay than adults'. This is because the milk tooth is covered with a thin and uncooked enamel. But there is an even more important factor - the bacteria themselves.
🥄Harmful bacteria can also infect a baby when the mother feeds the baby with a spoon she has licked. Germs in the mouth cause caries even before the baby’s first teeth come out.
🧬Another reason is heredity. Some people are affected differently by germs. For example, eating a lot of sweets can prevent caries. Or conversely, even a couple of chocolates a day can do the most damage to your teeth.
👨👩👦Therefore, parents serve as an important factor in determining the causes of caries in children.
