Is your child’s toothbrush as effective as it can be? If they are brushing with an old or dirty toothbrush, then they aren’t benefitting from brushing as much as they could be. To keep your child’s toothbrush running strong, rinse it thoroughly under cool tap water after brushing, washing the bristles clean of all debris. Replace their toothbrush every 3-4 months, so that your child brushes with functional bristles.

Is an electric toothbrush better than a conventional one? Research is mixed, and some electric brushes are better than others. However, if you have trouble motivating your child to brush, an excellent way to get your kids (or you!) excited about brushing is to try an electric toothbrush! Most child electric toothbrushes have a built-in two-minute timer and other fun features to make brushing something they look forward to.

Good oral health begins earlier than you may think! Before teeth emerge, use a soft cloth to wipe your baby's gums gently. As the first tooth appears (usually around eight months), you can use a fingertip toothbrush or one with a small head and soft bristles, specifically made for babies. Choose infant toothpaste and only use a light smear – about the size of a grain of rice.

Does your child bite their nails? This may seem like an innocent habit, but frequent nail biting can damage your teeth and gums, potentially leading to chipped or cracked teeth, as well as gum irritation. Help your children stop biting their nails with tactics such as a reward system, bitter-tasting polish, or even a fidget toy to keep idle hands busy.
