Answering All Your Kids’ Questions About Dental Hygiene
We’re happy to set the record straight about how to brush and floss your teeth the right way. Some common questions kids may ask are:
- Is brushing and flossing enough to protect your teeth?
- Not exactly: These reduce the risk of plaque buildup, but regular brushing and flossing work best with frequent trips to the dentist.
- When should you floss your teeth?
- At least once a day in the morning or evening.
- What happens if I don’t brush my teeth?
- You may need to see us more often! If too much plaque builds up in your mouth, it could lead to problems with your teeth and gums.
We’re ready to prepare your child for independent self-care by helping them understand the importance of excellent oral health. Giving children good dental hygiene skills early helps ensure that they can maintain healthy teeth for a lifetime.
