Ke niho nei kāu keiki liʻiliʻi? (Nīhoi) E kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i kēia!

Ke ʻano ʻē nei paha kāu keiki liʻiliʻi i kēia mau lā? Ke uē mau nei ʻo ia? ʻAʻole anei ʻo ia e ʻai ana? Malia paha ke ulu nei kona mau niho. Hiki i ka ulu ʻana o nā niho ke lilo i manawa paʻakikī no nā pēpē a me nā mākua. Akā inā ʻike ʻoe i kēia, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopau i ka ʻeha.

He aha ka ulu ʻana o nā niho?

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo ka wā e hoʻomaka ai ka niho o kāu pēpē e wehe a puka mai nā niho. Hiki i kēia ke lilo i mea ʻeha loa no kāu pēpē. E noʻonoʻo i ka nui o ka ʻeha ke loaʻa i kā mākou mau ʻeha ma ko lākou ʻāʻī. No laila pehea no nā mea liʻiliʻi? ʻO ia ke kumu e uē ai lākou, e ʻuwā, a hoʻomaha ʻole i nā manawa a pau i kēia manawa. Akā, ʻaʻole like kēia no nā pēpē a pau. Hiki i kekahi mau pēpē ke niho me ka ʻole o nā pilikia. Akā no ka hapa nui, he mea paʻakikī iki ia. No laila e nānā kākou i ka mea e hana ʻia i kēia wā niho, a pehea e maʻalahi ai.

I ka manawa hea e hoʻomaka ai nā pēpē e ulu nā niho?

He nīnau kēia a nā makuahine he nui e nīnau ai. ʻO ka maʻamau, hoʻomaka nā pēpē e niho ma waena o 4 a me 7 mau mahina . Eia nō naʻe, hiki i kekahi mau pēpē ke hoʻomaka e niho ma mua, e like me 3 mau mahina. Hiki i kekahi mau pēpē ke hoʻomaka e niho ma hope iki. He ʻokoʻa ia mai kēlā pēpē a i kēia pēpē.

ʻO nā niho mua e puka mai ana, ʻo ia nā niho mua ʻelua ma ka ʻāwae lalo . Kāhea mākou iā lākou ʻo 'nā niho mua ʻelua o lalo' . A laila, ma kahi o 4 a 8 mau pule ma hope mai, e hoʻomaka ana nā niho mua ʻehā ma ka ʻāwae luna (nā niho waena a me nā niho ma kēlā ʻaoʻao kēia ʻaoʻao o lākou) e puka mai. Ma kahi o hoʻokahi mahina ma hope mai, e puka mai ana nā niho mua ʻelua ma kēlā ʻaoʻao kēia ʻaoʻao o ka ʻāwae lalo.

ʻO ka mea aʻe , ʻo ia nā niho nau (Mua Molars) , ʻo ia nā niho hope i hoʻohana ʻia no ka wili ʻana i ka meaʻai. ʻO ka mea hope loa e hiki mai ana, ʻo ia nā niho ʻoi ma ka ʻāwae luna, i kapa ʻia hoʻi ʻo 'eyeteeth/canines' . Loaʻa i ka hapa nui o nā pēpē nā niho pēpē he 20 a pau i ka wā e piha ai lākou i ʻekolu makahiki . Eia nō naʻe, inā ʻike ʻia ua lōʻihi loa ka ulu ʻana o nā niho o kāu pēpē ma mua o kēia, he manaʻo maikaʻi ke kamaʻilio me ke kauka.

Kākaʻikahi loa, ʻo ia hoʻi, i nā hihia kakaikahi loa, hānau ʻia kekahi mau pēpē me hoʻokahi a ʻelua paha niho. A i ʻole, hiki ke puka mai kahi niho i loko o nā pule mua o ka hānau ʻana. Inā ʻaʻole paʻakikī ka pēpē i ka omo ʻana ma muli o kēia mau niho, a i ʻole ʻaʻohe makaʻu e hemo nā niho a paʻa, ʻaʻohe mea e hopohopo ai.

He aha nā hōʻailona o ka ulu ʻana o nā niho i loko o nā pēpē?

Ke hoʻomaka ka niho ʻana, hoʻomaka nā pēpē e kahe nui aku ka wai . Hoʻāʻo pū lākou e nau i nā mea a pau a lākou e loaʻa ai. No kekahi mau pēpē, ʻaʻole nui ka ʻeha o ka niho ʻana. Akā no kekahi poʻe, he manawa pōkole wale nō ia a lilo lākou i mea hoʻomaha ʻole. No kekahi poʻe , uwē mau lākou a uē no nā pule he nui, ʻaʻole hiamoe maikaʻi i ka pō, a ʻaʻole ʻai .

Hiki i ka wā e ulu ai nā niho ke lilo i manawa paʻakikī no nā pēpē, akā inā e uē nui ana kāu pēpē a i ʻole he huhū loa , ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kamaʻilio ʻana me ke kauka.

ʻOi aku paha ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kino o ka pēpē ma mua o ka maʻamau no ka mea ua pehu a ʻeha nā ʻāʻī. AkāʻO ka mea nui loa, ʻaʻole loa e hoʻoulu ka niho i ke kuni nui a i ʻole ka maʻi kahe. Inā loaʻa i kāu pēpē ke kuni a i ʻole ka maʻi kahe i ka wā e niho ana, pono kekahi mea ʻē aʻe e hoʻoulu ai. No laila, pono ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka, ʻeā?

Pehea e maʻalahi ai ka ulu ʻana o nā niho no kāu pēpē?

ʻO kēia ka pilikia nui loa i loaʻa i nā makuahine he nui. He mea paʻakikī ke nānā aku i kāu pēpē e uē a ʻeha. No laila, eia kekahi mau mea maʻalahi hiki iā ʻoe ke hana:

• Holoi i ka kuha: ʻOiai ke kahe mau nei ka wai o kāu pēpē, e holoi mālie i kona maka a puni kona waha me kahi lole maʻemaʻe . A i ʻole, hiki i ka kuha ke hoʻoulu i ka ʻili.
• E lomilomi i nā ʻāʻī: E hoʻomaʻemaʻe pono i kou manamana lima a hamo mālie i nā ʻāʻī o kāu pēpē . E kōkua kēia iā ia e hōʻoluʻolu iki.
• Hāʻawi i kāu pēpē i kahi mea e nau ai: Hāʻawi i kāu pēpē i kahi mea palekana e nau ai. Akā, pono e lawa ka nui no kāu pēpē e ale ai, a ʻaʻole hoʻi e haki i mau ʻāpana liʻiliʻi .
• Hiki iā ʻoe ke waiho i kahi lole pulu i loko o ka pahu hau no kahi o 30 mau minuke. Akā pono ʻoe e lawe i waho ma mua o ka paʻakikī ʻana e like me ka pōhaku . A i ʻole, hiki iā ʻoe ke hōʻeha hou aku i kou ʻāʻī pehu. Mai poina e holoi maikaʻi ma hope o ka hoʻohana ʻana.
• He maikaʻi nā apo niho i hana ʻia me ka laholio. Akā, mai kūʻai i nā mea me ka wai i loko. Hiki iā lākou ke haki a puka mai ka wai. Inā ʻoe e hoʻohana i kahi apo niho, e mālama i loko o ka friji e hoʻomaʻalili ai, ʻaʻole i loko o ka pahu hau . Eia kekahi, mai hoʻomaʻemaʻe iā ia ma ka hoʻolapalapa ʻana i ka wai wela . Hiki i nā loli wela nui ke hōʻino i ka plastik a hoʻokuʻu i nā kemika.
• Nā piskiki niho a me nā meaʻai anu: Hiki ke hāʻawi ʻia kēia mau mea i nā pēpē e hoʻomaka ana e ʻai i nā meaʻai paʻa . Mai hāʻawi i kēia mau mea i nā pēpē ʻaʻole i ʻai i nā meaʻai paʻa. Eia kekahi, pono ʻoe e nānā pono i kāu pēpē i kā lākou ʻai ʻana, no ka mea hiki i nā ʻāpana ke haki a ʻūlū.
• Lāʻau lapaʻau: Inā maʻi loa kāu pēpē, e noi i kāu kauka no ka ʻōlelo aʻo a hāʻawi iā ia i kahi liʻiliʻi o ka acetaminophen a i ʻole ibuprofen (no nā pēpē ma luna o 6 mau mahina) e kōkua i ka hōʻoluʻolu ʻana i ka ʻeha. Akā, mai hāʻawi iā ia i ka lāʻau lapaʻau me ka ʻole o ka ʻōlelo aʻo a ke kauka .

Mai hana i kēia mau mea!

* Mai kau i kahi papa aspirin ma luna o ka niho.

* Mai hamo i ka waiʻona ma luna o nā ʻāʻī o kāu pēpē.

* Mai nakinaki i ke apo niho a puni ka ʻāʻī o kāu pēpē a i ʻole ma kahi ʻē aʻe. Hiki iā ia ke hihia i loko o kekahi mea a hoʻopā i ka pēpē.

* Mai hoʻohana i nā lei niho i hana ʻia me ka ʻameba. Hiki iā lākou ke haki a paʻa i nā ʻāpana, a i ʻole hiki ke paʻa ka lei i ka ʻāʻī.

• ʻAʻole palekana kekahi mau gels a me nā papa no nā pēpē e hoʻoulu ai i ka niho ma ka mākeke. No laila, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻohana ʻole ʻana iā lākou.

Pehea e mālama ai i nā niho o ke keiki?

He mea nui loa ka mālama pono ʻana i nā niho o kāu pēpē mai ka lā e hoʻomaka ai lākou e ulu. E hāʻule ana kēia mau niho pēpē ma hope o kekahi manawa. Akā inā pala lākou (Tooth Decay), hiki iā lākou ke hāʻule ma mua o ko lākou hana ʻana. A laila, hana ʻia nā hakahaka ma mua o ka puka ʻana mai o nā niho mau loa. A laila hoʻāʻo nā niho pēpē i koe e hoʻopiha i kēlā mau hakahaka a ulu pū. Ma muli o kēia, i ka wā e ulu ai nā niho mau loa, hiki ke huki ʻia a puka mai nā wahi like ʻole. E noʻonoʻo pehea ka haunaele inā hana ʻia kēlā.

No laila, pono e hoʻomaka ka palaki ʻana o ka niho i kēlā me kēia lā ma mua o ka puka ʻana o ka niho mua o ka pēpē.

• Ma mua o ka puka ʻana mai o ka niho mua: E holoi i nā ʻāʻī o kāu pēpē i hoʻokahi manawa i ka lā me kahi lole maʻemaʻe a pulu a i ʻole kahi ʻāpana gauze . A i ʻole, e palaki mālie me kahi palaki niho palupalu i hana ʻia no nā pēpē, me ka wai wale nō . ʻAʻole pono kēia i ka toothpaste.
• Ma hope o ka puka ʻana mai o ka niho mua: E palaki i kou mau niho me ka wai a me ka toothpaste fluoride . Akā, pono ʻoe e hoʻohana i kahi liʻiliʻi loa o ka toothpaste, e like me ka nui o kahi hua laiki .
• Ke hiki i kāu pēpē ke holoi i ko lākou waha a kuha i waho i ka toothpaste (ma kahi o 3 mau makahiki), hiki iā ʻoe ke hāʻawi iā lākou i kahi toothpaste hou aʻe (e like me ka nui o ka pī). E koho i kahi toothpaste i loaʻa ka fluoride . Mai ʻae i nā keiki liʻiliʻi e ale i ka toothpaste a ʻai paha mai loko mai o kahi ʻōmole. ʻO ka nui o ka fluoride he mea ʻino ia i nā keiki liʻiliʻi.

Ke puka mai nā niho pēpē a pau o kāu pēpē, e hoʻāʻo e palaki iā lākou ma ka liʻiliʻi ʻelua i ka lā, ʻoi aku hoʻi ma hope o ka ʻai ʻana . He manaʻo maikaʻi nō hoʻi e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kāu pēpē i ka flossing ma waena o ko lākou mau niho i ka wā ʻōpiopio. ʻO kahi manawa kūpono e hoʻomaka ai i ka flossing ʻo ia ka wā e hoʻomaka ai nā niho ʻelua e hui pū. E kamaʻilio me kāu kauka niho e pili ana i ke ʻano o ka flossing ʻana i kēia mau niho liʻiliʻi. Hiki iā ʻoe ke kōkua i kāu pēpē e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kēia ma ka ʻae ʻana iā ia e nānā iā ʻoe e palaki a flossing i kāu hana ʻana, a me ka paipai ʻana iā ia e hoʻohālike iā ʻoe.

ʻO kekahi mea nui e hana ai e pale aku i ka pala niho, ʻo ia ka hoʻokuʻu ʻole ʻana i kāu pēpē e hiamoe me kahi ʻōmole waiū i loko o kona waha . Hiki i ka waiū a i ʻole ka wai huaʻai ke noho i loko o ka waha o kāu pēpē a hoʻoulu i ka pala niho a me ka plaque .

Ua ʻōlelo ka American Dental Association (ADA) e ʻike ʻia nā pēpē e ke kauka niho i ka wā i hoʻokahi makahiki ai lākou, a i ʻole i loko o 6 mau mahina o ko lākou niho mua . ʻAe kēia i ka ʻike mua ʻana i nā pilikia a me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo no ka pale ʻana i ko lākou mau niho.

He leka e lawe aku i ka home nou.

ʻAe, no laila hiki i ka wā e ulu ai nā niho ke lilo i manawa paʻakikī no ʻoe a me kāu pēpē. Akā me ka ʻike kūpono, ke aloha, a me ke ahonui,Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoponopono maʻalahi i kēia manawa me mākou.

• E makaʻala i ke ʻano o kāu pēpē. Inā loaʻa kekahi mau hōʻailona ʻē (ke kuni nui, ka maʻi pākī) , e ʻike koke i ke kauka .
• E hoʻohana wale i nā ʻano palekana e hōʻoluʻolu i kāu pēpē. E hoʻomanaʻo ʻaʻole maikaʻi nā mea āpau ma ka mākeke.
• Hoʻomaka ka mālama ʻana i kou mau niho maʻemaʻe ma mua o ka puka ʻana mai o ka niho mua. He mea nui loa ia no ke olakino o kou mau niho i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
• ʻAʻole ʻoe hoʻokahi. Aia kekahi mau makuahine ʻē aʻe i loaʻa nā ʻike like. Inā pono, e ʻimi i ka ʻōlelo aʻo mai ke kauka a i ʻole ka limahana olakino ʻohana.

No laila, mai hopohopo. E pau koke ana kēia wā, a e ʻike ʻoe i kāu keiki liʻiliʻi e ʻakaʻaka ana me nā niho nani!
