Thinking about introducing mouthwash to your kid's routine? 🪥✨ Here’s what you need to know before pouring a cup:

-Under 6 Years Old: Skip it! Young kids are prone to swallowing it, which can lead to fluorosis. Stick to brushing and flossing.
-Ages 6 to 12: OK to use, but always supervise to make sure they spit it out. Look for alcohol-free, kid-friendly fluoride formulas!
-Great for Braces: Fluoride rinse helps clear away bacteria hiding around brackets and wires.

Remember: Mouthwash is an added boost, not a replacement for brushing twice a day! 🦷💡

-Pick a time of day when your child is the least fussy.
-Read them a fun story about a friendly dentist ahead of time so they know what to expect.

Your lil one have a loose tooth? Wondering how to treat it? 🦷
Avoid the urge to pull it! Pulling a tooth too early can cause injury or infection. Instead, encourage your child to wiggle it gently with their tongue until it falls out naturally.
