Do I need to help my kids clean their teeth?
With the increasing sugar content of modern diets it is of utmost importance that you constantly monitor and assist with your child’s teeth cleaning routine. They require help up until they have sufficient dexterity to properly clean their own teeth, which is generally around the age of 8. Educating children on the importance of proper oral hygiene gives them the best chance of preventing major dental issues in adult life.
When should I take my kids to the dentist?
Children’s teeth are constantly moving and changing, which can leave you with a lot of questions. A dental exam as young as two gives your little one the opportunity to familiarise with the dental environment and can significantly reduce dental related anxiety. It also allows your dentist to screen for any caries, or developmental abnormalities that may require action. Regular monitoring of their development can help your dentist prepare both you and your child for future orthodontic treatment.
