Brush your teeth regularly.
You should get into the habit of brushing your teeth from the birth of your child. After the deciduous teeth grow out, use a soft toothbrush and a small amount of fluoride-free toothpaste suitable for children, at least twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.
Diet control
Reducing sugar intake is the key to prevent tooth decay. Try to avoid giving children high-sugar foods and drinks, especially sticky candy, chocolate and juice. If children need to eat sweets, it is best to eat them after meals or with other foods to reduce the time of direct contact with teeth.
Choice of drinking water
Fluoride in drinking water helps to prevent tooth decay. By drinking treated tap water or buying bottled water containing appropriate fluoride, you can ensure that the water your child drinks contains appropriate fluoride.
Go to the dentist regularly
Children are advised to see a dentist every six months to a year. Dentists can conduct oral examinations to find and deal with any potential tooth decay problems in time.
Use fluoride toothpaste
When the child's first permanent tooth grows out, fluoride toothpaste can be used. Please ensure that children brush their teeth correctly and supervise their brushing process until they can finish it independently.
Avoid feeding at night.
Try to avoid feeding your child or letting him suck the bottle for a long time before going to bed at night. This is because the sugar in milk will stay in the mouth for a long time, increasing the risk of tooth decay.
