Baby dental teeth care, crooked baby teeth

Sep. 30th 2010

My 21 month old son teeth are coming in crooked.  I am not sure if this is normal and they will correct themselves out or if I should be worried about it and take him to see a dentist.  They do not seem to be bothering him.

Does this mean I will need to get him braces?  Or will is adult teeth be fine?   I do not have dental insurance yet but have been shopping on line and will be getting one as soon as I have the extra money.   Advise may I worrying to much about this ?

Baby dental teeth care, five year old knocked out his tooth.

Sep. 18th 2010

Please help I need advise.  My son was riding his bike and got into an accident with a tree.  He is okay but he knocked one of his front tooth loose to the point that I think it will fall out.  I am not sure what to do.  I called my mom but she is so what it just a baby tooth.  But I do not think he was ready to lose it yet.   I would like to save it but I am not sure how to do it.  I have came to his site for advise before and got some very helpful information hoping you can help me again.  Thanks

Baby dental teeth care, Is candy really bad for our teeth

Sep. 17th 2010

I have a seven year old that  love candy.  I guess like most kids do.  I do not give him much candy at home but he gets it from is friends or is dad.  He has had one cavity when he was five but that has been all so far.

I only will give him sugar free candy but my husband will give his sweets and candy when they are out together.  I ask him not to but he said as long as he brushes his teeth twice a day like he does there is nothing wrong with have some candy.  I was raised that candy is really bad for your teeth. I just wondering who is really correct here.

Baby dental teeth care, should my daughter go to the dentist.

Jul. 25th 2010

So I have a fourteen month old daughter.  She started teething at ten months and now she has quite a few baby teeth in.  I am a new mother and I think I should take her to see the dentist.  However I do not have dental insurance on her only medical.

My daughter’s dad is not helping me as much as he should,  so I know he will not pay for her to go to the dentist.  I am lucky he does watch her when I am working since he is right now laid off  from his job.  Any way what should I do?  Should I take her to see the dentist anyway?  If so where do I find a good but cheap dentist?  Since I am the one having to pay for everything.

Baby dental teeth care, Dental care for a six year old

Jul. 17th 2010

I have two boys my ten year old has great oral health and always take good care of his teeth.  As a baby I never had any trouble taking care of his teeth.  He was really easy with me on cleaning his teeth untill at three he started brushing his own teeth.

However it is not the case with my six year old.  There are times I still have to brush his teeth for him because he will not brush them himself.  When he does brush I have to be within eye site to make sure he brushing and not just playing around.  He has already at age six has had two cavities. I  am worried he will just keep getting more and more cavities.

I feel if I can not get him to brush right this will be the same story for his adult teeth.  What are some good tips I can try to get him to brush his teeth and to do so without all the hassel I have to go though every day with him.
