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. |
