23.01.2022 Thumb Sucking Habit In younger children, the major cause of anterior open bite (excluding open bites associated with the transition from the primary to mixed dentitions) are non-nutritive sucking habits. By adolescence, environ- mental causes of anterior open bite are less important than skeletal factors.Prolonged thumb-sucking tends to create this malocclusion. A typical thumb-sucker has a malocclusion characterized by an asymmetric anterior open bite due to digit position a...nd a transverse constriction of the maxillaryarch. . Appliance therapy usually has one of several goals: to impede dental eruption and thereby control verticaldevelopment, to reduce or redirect vertical skeletal growth with intraoral or extraoral forces, or to extrude anterior teeth. Bite blocks often are used as a component of orthodontic appliances to intrude or control eruption of the posterior teeth. Bite blocks made of wire or plastic fit between the maxillary and mandibular teeth at a slightly increased vertical dimension. The stretched muscles theoretically place an intrusive force on the posterior teeth, which in turn helps control eruption. With limited eruption, skeletal growth is directed more anteriorly and less vertically. .

19.01.2022 We are loving Piksters Plaque Glo! An easy way to check your little ones removing all the plaque from their teeth! @piksters Meet Ella, a 7 year old with a love of dental products (yes really!) who wants to be a dentist, or a blogger, or both, when she grows up. Here's Ella's Plaque Glo review:... Step 1: Brush teeth using the Plaque Glo Toothpaste. Step 2: Rinse mouth Step 3: Shine light on teeth to show plaque. Step 4: Brush teeth again to remove the plaque that is left. I really liked it because it shows you where the plaque is and you can brush your teeth if there is still plaque. I liked the smell of the toothpaste. Thank you @piksters I loved using this. Love from Ella. Thanks for your gorgeous Plaque Glo video review Ella and mum Mim @reviewbeauties See more
