  1. How to Take Care of Baby Teeth

  2. Take Care of Baby Teeth • Contrary to what some people think, baby teeth are as important as adult teeth. • Baby teeth save space for adult teeth and help your child speak and chew properly. • They also help build your child’s confidence. So it is important to take care of their baby teeth, even if they’re bound to fall out and be replaced. 

  3. Here are some Important Tips on How to Take Care of Baby Teeth:

  4. Don’t Let Your Child Sleep With Their Bottle • Letting your child sleep with their baby bottle in their mouth can increase the risk of plaque and tartar buildup. • Formula and breast-milk can accumulate in their mouths, become food for harmful bacteria, and form acids that could attack the enamel.

  5. Brush and Floss Their Teeth • Start cleaning your child’s mouth even before their teeth appear. Use a clean washcloth to wipe their gums. • And once their teeth start to come in, use an age-appropriate brush and toothpaste to clean them. • You can also begin flossing their teeth once they erupt.

  6. Limit Intake of Starchy and Sugary Foods • Avoid giving your child too much sweet or sugary food and beverages. • Increase their intake of plain water once your doctor gives them the go-ahead. • Water helps dislodge food debris and neutralizes acid levels in the mouth.

  7. Take Your Child To The Dentist • Routine dental examinations can begin at age one or as soon as your family dentist recommends. • Your dentist can help monitor the development of your child’s mouth and related body structures, such as the jaw.

  8. Make dental care for children a positive experience. Brush with them and show them that taking care of baby teeth is fun. • If you have dental anxiety, consult with your dentist for advice to avoid inadvertently passing it on to your child.
