Dental hygienists working with new parents, infants, and children should be familiar with normal growth and development patterns and effectively communicate nutritional needs. Match each nutritional and oral term with its most appropriate description. -Mandible is located posterior to its normal position

The birth weight of an infant doubles in 3 months,and it has quadrupled by 1 year of age.Length or height increases by 50% by year of age.

Infants who are given artificial infant milk tend to weigh less than breast-fed infants.No artificial infant milk can match the benefits of breast milk.

The slow childhood growth rate accelerates with pubescence until the rate is as rapid as that of early infancy.During pubescence,growth of long bones,secondary sexual maturation,and fat and muscle deposition create an increased nutrient requirement.

Fluoride supplements should never be taken with:

Sticky carbohydrate foods such as candies,cookies,and pastries are cariogenic,but crackers and raisins are not because crackers and raisins contain less processed,more natural ingredients.

A mother asks about healthy snacks for her three children under 4 years old.All are wise choices the dental hygienist can recommend,except one.Which is the exception?

Dental hygienists working with new parents, infants, and children should be familiar with normal growth and development patterns and effectively communicate nutritional needs. Match each nutritional and oral term with its most appropriate description. -The most common developmental disorder of children

Maxillary molars are affected first by early childhood caries.Artificial infant milk is more cariogenic than human breast milk.

The most powerful predictor for how much children eat is how much food is put on their plate.The MyPlate sections for kids are different from those of adults.

Human breast milk contains omega-3 (docosahexaenoic)and omega-6 (arachidonic)fatty acids.Compared with cow's milk,human milk is low in lactose and relatively high in protein.

Iron-rich food or a daily low-dose oral iron supplement should be initiated at what age?

Each is true of iron requirements,except one.Which is the exception?

A mother's food choices during pregnancy will affect her child's health,but have little bearing on later preferences because flavors from the mother's diet rarely transmit through amniotic fluid.

Fluoride supplementation is recommended for all infants older than 6 weeks because this mineral increases the strength and acid resistance of developing tooth enamel.

Which is true of protein requirements for infants? (Select all that apply.)

An appropriate caloric concentration of infant formula that provides adequate nutrients for full-term infants is approximately _____ kcal/oz.

Each is accurate regarding iron consumption and prevention of anemia,except one.Which is the exception?
