| Dental disease is preventable, and proper dental care is very important. Here are some of the reasons: ✔ Children need healthy teeth to eat, talk, smile, and feel good about themselves. ✔ Children with cavities may have difficulty eating, stop smiling, and have problems paying attention and learning. ✔ Tooth decay is an infection that may require emergency room treatment and can permanently damage adult teeth. |
Kids should have their first dental visit around 6 months (or when they get their first tooth). ✔ Take your child to the dentist twice a year. ✔ Choose healthy, fresh foods for the family. ✔ Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste; floss once daily. ✔ Limit candy and sugary drinks that can cause cavities. |
