Brushing Your Tooth

Importance of Brushing teeth

Tooth brushing is an integral part of one’s life. The habit of tooth brushing should start when the first tooth appears in the mouth. Tooth brushing may not be a favourite thing for your child, but try choosing a toothpaste and toothbrush that your child will like and will want to use.

The toothpaste should contain fluoride and be child-friendly with colours and flavours that appeal to kids. A simple explanation such as the one below can be used to explain to the child how to brush their teeth.
