There is a prescription for helping your child to have healthy teeth and gums for a lifetime. This list provides you with the means by which to accomplish it.

 
  • Effectively brush the teeth at least twice a day using a fluoride toothpaste.
  • Snack in moderation.
  • Chew sugarless gum instead of snacking.
  • Visit our office regularly.
  • Get enough fluoride through the drinking water.
  • Supplement with fluoride systemically if there is none in the drinking water.
  • Before bed rinse with a fluoride mouthwash.
  • Have sealants applied to the chewing surfaces of permanent back teeth soon after these teeth come in
