习惯改善器

我们有仪器可以帮助儿童改善吮吸拇指,手指,舌头或奶嘴的习惯。此外,它们可以被用来帮助颌骨生长和排列,改善牙齿咬合。

儿童从很小的时候就嘬大拇指这是很常见的,是他们自己舒缓的方式。大多数孩子往往会自行停止吸吮拇指。但如果孩子没有自己停止,那他会需要帮助在恒牙成长之前把习惯改正。

Through positive counselling, your child’s dentist will ensure he/she doesn’t feel embarrassed about sucking his/her thumb, but rather is encouraged to try alternatives that are better for oral development. We have various tools to help with this.

Space maintainers are specific appliances that help maintain the gap in a child’s mouth for the adult tooth to come in. They also prevent irregular shifting and crowding of new teeth. It is important during regular check ups that we keep an eye on any bite or jaw issues in order to guide teeth properly as they emerge. If it is necessary we may talk to you about early orthodontics.
