FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best practices for brushing my child’s teeth?
Begin by using a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and a rice-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste for children under three, increasing to a pea-sized amount for those three and older. Brush gently in a circular motion on all surfaces of the teeth and along the gum line twice a day, in the morning and before bed.
How can I make sure my child is flossing correctly?
Teach your child to gently insert the floss between their teeth, curve it around each tooth in a “C” shape, and slide it up and down along the side of each tooth to remove plaque effectively.
Are there any foods I should avoid to keep my child’s teeth healthy?
Limit sugary snacks and beverages, sticky candies, and starchy foods that can linger on teeth; instead, offer a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains to promote strong teeth and healthy gums.
How often should my child visit the dentist for a check-up?
Children should have a dental check-up every six months to monitor their oral health, catch potential issues early, and receive professional cleanings that remove plaque and tartar buildup.
Can dental sealants help protect my child’s teeth from decay?
Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars) and can significantly reduce the risk of cavities by shielding against food and bacteria.
