Getting Your Child To Practice Good Dental Health Habits

Sunday, Sep. 11th 2022 10:12 AM

For younger children parents should supervise their child teeth brushing, as brushing teeth can be hard for young children to do thoroughly. Your child needs to develop good motor control so that they are able to properly brush their teeth without adult supervision.

One way to test if your child is read to brush their teeth on their own is by using “Red Tablets” they highlight all that your child has missed when bushing and will let them learn how to brush better. You can get them online or at your local drug store.

Another quick way to test your child brushing is to have your child eat an Oreo cookie and then have them brush their teeth. If you can still see the Oreos, then you need to be checking and helping them brush.
