Commonly Asked Questions About Your Children's Dental Care...

When should I start cleaning my baby's teeth?

  This is a good habit to start early! The teeth must be cleaned as they erupt. Use a damp wash cloth or a toothbrush.

 

If your health care provider agrees, use a tiny dab of fluoride toothpaste. Tooth brushing is definitely a parents job in the preschool years.

 

Children are usually able to brush their teeth well when they are 8 years old. Be sure to check your child's teeth regularly for any chalky white or brown spots which could be the beginning of tooth decay.
