Is your child prone to cavities<\/span>? The family dental professionals at Atrium Family Dental can help. Introducing proper oral health habits at an early age is important and using the right oral health care products is essential.<\/p>\n

Preventing cavities starts with the type of toothbrush your child is using. Our family dental experts<\/span> suggest picking a toothbrush with polished bristles that will be softer on your children’s gums. Most companies even make toothbrushes specifically designed for children’s small mouth and hands. In addition, look for a brush with a bigger handle so children can easily navigate the toothbrush. As soon as the bristles wear out on your child’s toothbrush, or after a three-month time period, be sure to buy a new one.<\/p>\n

When it comes to toothpaste, make sure that fluoride is a main ingredient. However, it is crucial to teach your children to ALWAYS spit out toothpaste. Fluoride can be harmful to anyone, and if your child is prone to swallowing toothpaste, find a healthy alternative<\/span>. It is a good idea to use only a pea-sized amount of toothpaste, and make sure that each tooth gets covered.
