“…Breastfeeding was associated with less NNSHs in children born very preterm (21). The recent studies of preterm children and the general population in Brazil concluded shorter duration of breastfeeding associated with increased risk of malocclusions (including posterior crossbite) at the age of 5 (25,49). However, in one such study (25), the association between breastfeeding and posterior crossbite was observed only when it was not adjusted for NNSHs.…”

Introduction:Children born very preterm have an immature sucking reflex at birth and are exposed to neonatal care that can impede proper palate growth.ObjectivesWe aimed to describe the frequency of high-arched palate and posterior crossbite at the age of 5 in children born very preterm and to identify their respective risk factors.MethodsOur study was based on the data from EPIPAGE-2, a French national prospective cohort study, and included 2,594 children born between 24- and 31-week gestation. Outcomes were high-arched palate and posterior crossbite. Multivariable models estimated by generalized estimation equations with multiple imputation were used to study the association between the potential risk factors studied and each outcome.ResultsOverall, 8% of children born very preterm had a high-arched palate and 15% posterior crossbite. The odds of high-arched palate were increased for children with low gestational age (24–29 vs. 30–31 weeks of gestation) [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.17, 2.66], thumb-sucking habits at the age of 2 (aOR 1.53, 95% CI 1.03, 2.28), and cerebral palsy (aOR 2.18, 95% CI 1.28, 3.69). The odds of posterior crossbite were increased for children with pacifier-sucking habits at the age of 2 (aOR 1.75, 95% CI 1.30, 2.36).ConclusionsAmong very preterm children, low gestational age and cerebral palsy are the specific risk factors for a high-arched palate. High-arched palate and posterior crossbite share non-nutritive sucking habits as a common risk factor. The oro-facial growth of these children should be monitored.

“…A close-ended questionnaire was developed based on previous studies and distributed to the parents of the participating children [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ]. It consisted of 20 questions and included the following three parts: Part I: The child’s background information, age, and sex; Part II: The child’s deleterious oral habits: digit-sucking, lip-biting, tongue-thrusting, object-biting, bruxism, unilateral chewing, and mouth-breathing; Part III: The child’s feeding pattern: infant feeding practice in the first 6 months of life, duration of breastfeeding and bottle feeding, pacifier use, delivery method, and gestational age at delivery.…”

This survey examined the prevalence of malocclusion and its associated factors in 3- to 5-year-old children in Huizhou, China. Children were recruited from 21 kindergartens using a multistage sampling method. Two examiners performed oral examinations on the children, assessing occlusal traits, including primary molar and canine relationship, overjet, crossbite, overbite, anterior open bite, scissor bite, midline deviation, crowding, and spacing. Caries experience was recorded. Self-administered questionnaires were distributed to collect background information and oral health-related habits. Chi-square test, Mann–Whitney U test, and binary logistic regression were conducted. The study invited 1485 children and eventually recruited 1454 (52.9% boys; response rate: 97.9%). The prevalence of malocclusion was 68.3%, and deep overbite was found in 48.6% of the children. Children who had lip-biting habits had a higher prevalence of deep overbite than those who did not (OR = 2.36, p < 0.05). Children who had digit-sucking habits and dental caries in anterior maxillary teeth had a lower prevalence of deep overbite than those who did not (OR = 0.73 and 0.70, respectively, p < 0.05). In conclusion, over half of the children in Huizhou who participated in the study had malocclusion. Dental caries in anterior maxillary teeth, digit-sucking, and lip-biting were the associated factors of deep overbite.

“…In early childhood, these children can have significant delays in different facets of physical and psychological growth and development. Numerous studies have shown that, like other tissues and organs of the body, the development of facial bones and the occlusion can be affected by premature birth and LBW [11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Some authors report that premature birth [18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and low birth weight [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] lead to the delayed eruption of the deciduous teeth.…”

Objective: To investigate whether children with premature birth (PB) and/or with low birth weight (LBW) have different tooth eruption patterns than those born at term or with normal weight. Material and Methods: Searches were performed in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Sc1opus, Web of Science, LILACS, and BBO databases as well as the grey literature. Three independent reviewers were involved in study selection, data extraction, and bias assessment. The risk of bias was assessed using the Modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Meta-analysis was conducted to compute the mean difference (MD) in mean chronological or adjusted age at the eruption of the first deciduous tooth between preterm children and those born at full term. The GRADE approach was used. Results: Among a total of 316 articles identified, 21 were eligible for inclusion and three were included in the meta-analysis. PB was associated with the delay in the first tooth deciduous eruption when chronological age was considered (MD: 1.36; 95%CI: 1.02-1.69) but not when considering adjusted age (MD: -0.30; 95%CI: -0.67-0.07). The evidence was graded as having very low quality. Conclusion: Based on a low certainty of evidence the PB is associated with the delayed eruption of the first deciduous tooth when considering chronological age but not when adjusted age is considered.
