Aim:
Mothers' understanding of feeding methods and how they affect deciduous dentition were the focus of this study.
Materials And Methods:
This study looked at people from different parts of the population. In total, 230 moms of children aged 6 months to 5 years who completed an oral health questionnaire were included in the study. Mothers' awareness of feeding patterns and their impact on deciduous dentition were examined in the study.
Results:
Illiterate moms' children showed a significant difference in the quality of their occlusion compared to similarly raised children of literate mothers. Children who began supplementary feeding before the age of 6 months were more likely to have occlusion changes.
Conclusion:
Malocclusion prevalence was shown to be unrelated to meal behaviors. However, further research is required as there are just a few studies currently available.
