White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

An excellent overview of how to best take care of your child’s teeth!

A key point to note: oral hygiene routines for children should include both tooth brushing and flossing. Toothbrushing should not only be monitored but a caregiver should be “re-brushing” or “pre-brushing” the child’s teeth with each toothbrushing session (twice a day!).

They may not like it, but it has to happen, and eventually they will at least tolerate it, if not enjoy it!

White Tooth Dental Takeaways:

Enameloplasty is meant to be a very conservative procedure and because the goal is to not remove so much enamel that the underlying dentin (the part of the tooth that has nerve endings) is exposed, there are not many indications for it.
