Five easy ways to care for children's teeth
Simple, practical tips to help little ones build healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Looking after children's teeth does not have to be a battle. A few small habits make a big difference.
1. Brush together
Children learn by copying, so brushing as a family helps good technique stick. Aim for twice a day, last thing at night and one other time.
2. Keep sugar to mealtimes
It is how often sugar is eaten, not just how much, that matters most. Try to keep sweet treats to mealtimes.
3. Make it fun
A two minute song or a favourite toothbrush can turn brushing into something to look forward to.
