baby's teethAs we talked on other occasions, cleaning should start from the gums, ie before the birth of the first tooth and go, varying the method that will appear as the first teeth.

Baby teeth are as important as the final. This is because if the baby teeth have caries, the bacteria that cause permanent tooth passed to affect it.

At first, to clean baby’s teeth once a day is enough, the ideal time is at night before bedtime and after the last bottle.

When your child already has two years and most of his teeth has left, we cleaned at least twice a day. At this age you can start to use a small amount of toothpaste. It should continue brushing always at night before bed and another bathroom can be done in the morning or after lunch.

In some cases the child may want to start brushing the teeth alone, in that case you can choose because you do during the day and parents at night, because this brush is more important. The best thing to teach is to try to guide the movements of the hand of the child so that you learn the correct technique.

If you do not want to carry out this routine will need to find some strategy, done in conjunction with parents (children learn by imitation), explain why brushing (in the mouth there is bug that we can hurt the teeth and cause pain) , show pictures or stories related to cavities, etc. The child should never think of brushing as a punishment.

While you brush can be tricky for parents, must do so with patience and love, as are the consequences of worst “a mouth full of cavities and diseased teeth.
