How to care the teeth of baby

How to care the teeth of baby

  • Toddlers do not like to brush our teeth . To get your baby to the measure of hygiene, clean his gums after feeding using a washcloth or a washcloth before it has teeth.
  • You can begin brushing at the onset of her first tooth. For added comfort, sit on a couch, a bed or on the ground. Ask her head on your lap. As soon as he can stand up, put you both in front of a mirror: sit on a chair, and stand behind him.
  • Start with a push from her lips of your free hand and then brush her teeth vertically, always going the gum to the tips of the teeth.
  • Leave it to rinse and spit out the water if able. Do not use fluoride toothpaste before he could spit: swallowing too much fluoride can cause white spots on teeth. Use a small amount (the equivalent of a grain of rice) of fluoride toothpaste to get him used to the taste of the dough and make him spit it out.
  • Do not share your toothbrush (or that of your other children) with your baby: he must have his own to avoid coming into contact with the bacteria that cause tooth decay.
  • Since children love to imitate, brush your teeth before him, just before brushing his.
  • According to the Canadian Dental Association, you can bring your child to the dentist at age 1 year or 6 months after the onset of her first tooth, to get used to the exam. But your dentist may wish to wait until all her teeth had pierced before the review and conduct a cleanup.
  • To prevent tooth decay, do not put your baby to bed with a bottle .

  2. It is very difficult to keep kids away from fizzy drinks, chocolates, chips etc. When i consulted a dentist Mumbai for my treatment the dentist suggested me few story books for my 3 yr old kid on taking care of teeth and to my surprise my child refuses to eat such things after that and also asks me to do the same and am very glad about.
