Everyone knows the importance of regular and routine dental care, but parents, we know how hard it can be to help your child have the best teeth possible. Pillar Dental is here to help you create healthy habits now so you’ll have less to worry about when it comes to your child’s teeth.
So, how do you foster an environment where your kids look at dental care as something positive for them? It’s simple.
Start Early
When your child’s teeth begin to come in, brush their teeth with an infant toothbrush. Use water and a tiny bit of infant toothpaste that’s recommended by your doctor or dentist.
Show Them The Way
Positive dental care comes with setting an example yourself. If you’re not brushing with regularity in front of your children, then they’ll have no idea how important it is to complete twice a day.
Brush With Them!
The next time you need to brush your teeth, make it a fun experience for everyone by joining in. Not only are you helping show your children how to brush, but you’re also showing them that it’s important to you too.
Brushing, flossing, and rinsing twice a day is the goal for a healthy mouth. You can show your kids the best way to incorporate healthy dental habits from the beginning.
