4 Tips to Take Care of Kids Teeth

Good dental hygiene should start as soon as their first tooth erupts. Here are 4 best tips to take good care of their tiny teeth and ensure their smile stays adorable forever.

1. Brush Twice A Day

Even before the first tooth erupts, it is always best to take good care of their gums with a wet soft cloth, make sure to clean their gums after each feed. Once the baby gets their first teeth, use a soft finger brush to clean their teeth twice a day.

2. Supervise Your Child’s Brushing

During the initial years, it is advisable to supervise your little one while they brush their teeth, this is must because their motor skills are still developing. While brushing the teeth make sure the brush is moving in circular motion and not too hard on the teeth. The child should brush at least for 2-3 minutes.

3. Be a Role mode

Children learn from their parent and they totally enjoy imitating us, hence show them right oral health care practices. Make brushing a fun activity and be a role model for your kids.

4. Visit A Good Paediatric Dentist Regularly

Apart from brushing twice and taking care of teeth and gums, it is important for the child to visit the dentist regularly. This helps to avoid dental problems like cavities or gum in the future.

When to see a Dentist??

The child should have their first dental appointment once their first tooth appears or no later than 12 months. It helps the dentist to monitor the health of their new teeth as they come in when their first tooth erupts, there are high chances of cavities development. A complete examination from a pedodentist ensures normal growth and development of your child’s teeth.

    I’m at a stage where it’s a challenge getting my toddler to use the brush for cleaning her teeth and not everything else in the house! This post is a good reminder to fix up an appointment with the dentist.
