Todos sabemos la existencia de los dientes de leche, sin embargo, hasta que no llega a nuestra familia un nuevo peque no nos paramos a pensar en su importancia. Pero ¿conocemos realmente todo lo que implican los primeros dientes?
En Clínica Dental YbDent, tu dentista de confianza, te contamos todo sobre los dientes de leche para conseguir una mordida fuerte y sana en los más pequeños. Estos dientes duran hasta los seis años y ayudan al niño a:
Reciben diversos nombres puesto que podemos escuchar que alguien se refiere a ellos como dientes de leche, dientes primarios, dientes caducos o dientes temporales y la mandíbula de un bebé suele estar compuesta por 20 de estos dientes.
Los dientes de leche siguen un orden determinado para construir una estructura y puede que veamos la primera punta en las encías del niño a los seis meses de edad. Pero no tendremos que preocuparnos si esto aún no ha sucedido ya que lo normal es que empiecen a salir entre los seis meses y el año.
Los síntomas que nos indicarán que el niño está experimentando la salida de los dientes no son agradables para él, por lo que el principal protagonista será el llanto causado por la erupción y apertura de las encías. Además, lo más probable es que sufra un constante babeo que pueda desembocar en tos y en la irritación de su barbilla por lo que deberemos controlar este síntoma y secar continuamente con un papel suave para disminuir sus dolores.
Por otro lado, un mecanismo de defensa que tiene el ser humano ante este portento es mostrar una posición negativa a la hora de comer. Aunque el niño no se sabe expresar, sabe que lo que le está causando molestias y dolor es la boca por lo que no querrá hacer uso de ella para evitar que aumente.
Para calmar el dolor del niño lo que podemos hacer es:
Como hemos visto, es muy importante que los dientes primarios se conserven sanos hasta el momento en el que caen para asegurar una mejor mandíbula de dientes permanentes al niño. Pero ¿Cómo cuidamos los dientes de leche?
Pues bien, los pasos que recomendamos para mantener una buena higiene bucal de un bebé son:
Estos dientes temporales caen sobre los seis años cuando los definitivos empiezan a empujar, sin embargo, muchos niños sufren una pérdida prematura debido a golpes o caídas y su hueco no se volverá a completar hasta que el diente permanente esté formado, por lo que deberemos tener cuidado para que no tenga problemas de fonética o mordida a causa de su pérdida.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
