Toddler Teeth

Toddlers usually feel one of two ways about brushing their teeth. They are either excited to be a big girl or boy, or they are uncooperative. It’s important to help your young one develop good oral hygiene. Here are some tips on handling common teeth brushing problems.

Take advantage of your child’s curiosity
If your child wants to brush their own teeth, let them. However, you should supervise the process up until your child is school-aged.

Let Your Child Express Their Independence
Let them have fun picking out the toothpaste and the brush they want. This is just another way to get them interested.

Be Creative
There have been a lot of toothbrush innovations since we were kids. A toothbrush can now speak to your child and play music. They are also shaped as your child’s favorite cartoon or movie character. All of these innovations were developed so children can have fun while brushing.

If you have a real dental question you should always contact your friendly pediatric dentist.
