Fostering good dental habits early in life is pivotal in ensuring a lifetime of healthy smiles. Start by encouraging regular brushing and flossing. Your child should brush their teeth twice a day, ideally in the morning and before bed, for two minutes each time.
Flossing once daily is as important as brushing, especially in removing plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line, which a toothbrush cannot easily reach. To make flossing more fun for your child, consider using floss picks or flossers designed for kids. They come in various colors and can make flossing less of a chore.
By prioritizing your child’s dental health today, you’re helping lay the foundation for a future of healthy smiles. Regular dental visits not only keep their teeth healthy but also help instill a positive view of dental care that will last a lifetime.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that a child should go to the dentist by age one or within six months after the first tooth erupts.
Just like adults, children should visit the dentist every six months for regular check-ups and cleanings. However, Dr. Kulhari may recommend more frequent visits if your child is at a higher risk of tooth decay or other oral health issues.
Dr. Kulhari provides a comprehensive range of children’s dentistry services, including routine check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, cavity fillings, and education on proper oral hygiene habits.
