Tiny Teeth Need the Right Toothbrush Too!
Choosing the right toothbrush can make brushing easier, more effective, and even a little more fun for your child.
Here are a few tips:
🦷 Choose a small toothbrush head that fits comfortably in your child's mouth and can easily reach those little back teeth.
🦷 Always use soft bristles. They clean gently without harming delicate gums or developing teeth.
🦷 Pick a toothbrush your child loves. Whether it's their favourite colour or a fun character, an exciting toothbrush can encourage better brushing habits.
🦷 Replace it every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles are worn or your child has been ill.
🦷 Brush together! Young children need help brushing until they have the coordination to do it properly—usually around 7 or 8 years old.
A healthy smile starts with healthy habits, and the right toothbrush is the perfect place to begin.
Preserve. Restore. Enhance.
