How long will the baby's mouth water stop

summary

Our child has been 2 years old. He has been drooling since he was very young. He has been drooling all day. Except when he was sleeping, there was no other abnormality. That is to say, drooling is too serious and often makes his chin red. Today, let me talk to you about how long the baby's mouth water will stop.

How long will the baby's mouth water stop

First, with the growth of months, the swallowing function of the baby tends to be perfect, and the phenomenon of drooling will disappear by itself, so parents need not worry about it. Generally, the saliva secretion of the baby starts to increase obviously from 4 to 6 months old. Because the baby's oral cavity volume is relatively small, the swallowing function development is not perfect, and the baby can't swallow saliva in time, so there will be saliva outflow.

Second: the fast-growing children will stop drooling when they are one and a half years old, and most children will gradually and effectively control swallowing movements before they are two years old because of the maturity of muscle motor function, and their mouth will no longer be wet. If you are still drooling after this age, you have to ask a doctor to check, so as to exclude some local oral diseases and some central nervous system diseases.

Third: Baby drooling is also a normal phenomenon, the body has not fully developed. After 2-year-old, only a small number of children will have normal mental development and drool.

matters needing attention

For babies who often drool, you should wipe the saliva from their mouth at any time. Don't use force when wiping. Gently wipe the saliva dry to avoid damaging local skin. If the baby's saliva is very serious, you should go to the hospital to check whether there are abnormal diseases in the baby's mouth and whether the swallowing function is normal.
