Many people often wonder when they should start taking care of their children’s baby teeth. The answer to that is when you see the first tooth! Brushing should begin when your child’s first tooth appears!

Tooth decay is one of the most chronic diseases in children ages 6-11. It’s extremely important to teach your children the importance of oral health from a young age!

Here are a few tips on how to protect your child’s oral health!
  • Start Oral Care Early
  • Teach the Brush & Floss Habit
  • Avoid “Baby Bottle Decay”
  • Control the Sippy Cup Habit
  • Ditch the Binky by 2 or 3
  • Beware of Mouth-Unfriendly Medicines
  • Stand Firm on Oral Hygiene
