Tips on taking care of your baby’s teeth and gums
* During six months to twelve months your baby first tooth should appear. Make sure to consul with a pediatric dentist for an dental examination.
* You want to brush your baby’s teeth after each feeding and before bedtime with a small soft bristled toothbrush.
* As your child starts to learn how to walk, stay alert of potential dental and/or facial injuries.
* Try and wean your child from the use of a baby bottle by his or her first birthday. (If a woman breastfeeds her child, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends breastfeeding for at least one year. The World Health Organization recommends breastfeeding for at least two years.)
