What is the reason that newborn opens mouth to sleep

summary

Children have the habit of oral breathing, which has a very serious adverse effect on oral development. At the same time, mouth breathing will block the airway. At this time, in order to breathe more smoothly, children will choose to raise their head to open the airway. However, after raising their head, their vision and center of gravity will change. In order to maintain balance and look straight ahead, children will compensate by hunchback. Neonatal mouth sleep is what reason to tell you.

What is the reason that newborn opens mouth to sleep

The first is failure of nasal ventilation, obstruction of nasal structures, hypertrophy of adenoids, hypertrophy of tonsils, distortion of nasal septum, atresia of posterior nostrils and hypertrophy of turbinate;

Second: allergic rhinitis; mouth breathing habits of artificially fed children.

Third: under normal circumstances, we breathe through the nasal cavity, and the position of the tongue is close to the upper jaw. For various reasons, after children switch to mouth breathing, their lips open naturally. In order to make way for breathing, their tongue retracts and loses the power to support the dental arch. The buccal muscles tighten because of opening the mouth, and give the dental arch retraction force. The imbalance between the two forces will be caused for a long time Dental arch narrow, and dental arch narrow will make the front teeth out, or dental arch position is not enough to row down the teeth caused by crowding and long face.

matters needing attention

At this time, the influence is not over, because even if the tongue is retracted, the airway is still partially blocked. At this time, in order to breathe more smoothly, children will choose to raise their head to open the airway. However, after raising their head, their vision and center of gravity will change. In order to maintain balance and look straight ahead, children will compensate by hunchback, so that the whole person's posture will be dispirited or even frightened The feeling of shrinking also exerts a subtle influence on psychology.
