How to look after your children's teeth

The best way to ensure your children keep their teeth clean is to build it in to their daily routine. If you find you need to assist them, gently cradle their chin, whilst standing behind them is a great way to reach the top and bottom teeth in their mouth. As soon as you see their teeth first appearing, use a small child’s tooth brush with a pea sized amount of a children’s tooth paste.

We recommend that you supervise your children brushing their teeth until they are around 7 years old. Once all their teeth are through, you should use a larger brush and break the mouth down in to small sections. Brush in a circular motion in each section before moving on to the next.

Encouraging your children to adopt this routine, and brush twice a day will certainly help them in later life and maintaining a healthy, happy smile.
