How to Help Kids Prevent Cavities

A lifetime of good oral hygiene starts in childhood. By teaching your children how to prevent cavities, you will be introducing healthy habits that they will use to care for their adult teeth later in life. Keep reading to learn some simple ways to help your kids prevent cavities.

Stick to a Routine

A consistent oral care routine is one of the easiest ways to prevent cavities. The ADA recommends brushing teeth twice a day, so make sure you add time for brushing teeth into your child’s morning and evening routines. It can be tough to stay consistent during these busy times of the day, but sticking to a routine will help kids to view brushing their teeth as a normal part of the day and not as a chore.

Make Brushing Fun

There are many fun products available that can get little ones excited about brushing. Toothpaste for kids are available in a wide variety of flavors and toothbrushes feature fun characters and designs. Letting your child pick out their own toothbrush and toothpaste will give them a sense of responsibility and help them to look forward to brushing. Just be sure to check for the ADA seal before purchasing toothpaste!
