TORONTO - June 7, 2021 - PRLog -- As we all know, children pick up habits from their parents starting from a young age. This means, helping them to pick up good oral hygiene habits is critical to help put them on a path of lifetime good oral health care. Starting this routine with them early and encouraging them to engage in doing so will leave positive effects on the child.

When Should I Start?

Most parents are unsure of where they should start when it comes to oral health care and babies, but no need to worry, our team is here to help. Cleaning your baby's mouth after eating is an important start. Before teeth start coming in, it's very important to take a damp cloth and remove any leftover food so that there is no bacteria build-up. This process will also help the baby become familiar with cleaning in the mouth practices.

After you see the first tooth arrive, you can then take a child's soft toothbrush and begin cleaning the tooth. Choosing a small brush for your baby is very important. You may also use a small amount of toothpaste at this time for your child.
