Let’s talk about plaque — because it’s not just something dentists say to scare kids. 😅
Plaque is actually a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth throughout the day. When kids eat sugary or starchy foods, those bacteria throw a little party and create acids that can weaken enamel.
That’s why brushing before bed is especially important — it clears away plaque before it has all night to cause trouble.
Think of brushing as the nightly “clean-up crew” for your child’s smile.
