You should start taking care of your children’s teeth as soon as their first tooth appears. It is necessary to start cleaning the teeth with the help of a very soft brush. Toothpaste should be avoided until your children have learned to spit. The children should have their teeth cleaned twice a day, once in the morning and once before going to bed at night.
The Baby’s head should be placed on your lap during brushing so that you can see all the teeth very clearly. The brush should be rotated up and down during brushing to clean your baby’s teeth properly. If you face any problem regarding brushing your baby’s teeth, then you should consult with a dentist and the dentist will guide you about the right methodology of brushing.
You should teach your children the correct methodology of brushing from their very childhood. This teaching will help them to keep their teeth healthy for a long time.
The habit of gulping after eating should be developed in your children. It will help them protect their teeth from cavities. It is also important to teach your children how to keep their tongues clean because it helps to reduce bad breath. The children should also be taught how to massage the gums while brushing.
If you manage to develop all these good habits in your children from their very childhood, they will have problem-free gums and teeth throughout their life and this will be the best gift that you can give to your children.
