Here is a rough guide to show us when to expect the little pearls to appear. Always check your child’s mouth as sometimes they can cut more than one tooth at a time. Some children are born with teeth! Its never too early to bring them to see us.
Always help young children to brush effectively and don’t forget make it fun!!
- Always brush twice a day once after their breakfast and again at bedtime.
- Use a pea size amount of a children’s paste. The main difference between children’s paste and an adult version is the amount of fluoride in them.
- Even if it is a children’s toothpaste encourage them to spit away after brushing. Many of the pastes taste so good it is not always possible and usually they want more!
- Check their brush and change it roughly every 3 months. My son always chewed his so I changed it more often. But you will see when it needs to be changed.
