Start
early, start right- a quick guide: Fundamentals of Oral Care for
Kids
-
Your
child's first dental visit should be between the eruption of the
first tooth and his or her first birthday.
-
Brush
your children's teeth until they are around three years old, then
start encouraging them to join in. Supervise their brushing until
age eight.
-
Children
underage four should use a simple brushing technique-such as a small,
circular brushing motion.
-
Choose a children's toothbrush with a small brushhead and soft bristles.
-
Use
only a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. Teach your child
to rinse and spit out any toothpaste left after brushing.
-
Flossing
should start when two teeth touch and supervision is needed until
at least the age of 10.
