Abstract：Children are in the active stage of growth and development. Their craniofacial bones, dentition occlusion and facial soft tissues are in the process of dynamic change. How to give children perfect teeth is the problem we need to take into consideration. Orthodontic technique should be integrated into pediatric dentistry, according to the concept of oral preventive medicine. Besides, the clinical thinking and practice of occlusive guidance is proposed in children guided by physiological occlusion. To be specific, it means that during the period of growth and development in children, oral health examination, timely detection of oral health problems and intervention with advanced technology at the right time should be emphasized in order to obtain physiological occlusion, achieving stability, beauty and harmony of the appearance. Corresponding clinical practice includes the maintenance of the integrity of deciduous teeth and the length of dental arch, the intervention of disorders during mixed dentition and the orthodontic treatment for malocclusion in children, etc.
