When and how can we start brushing our child’s teeth?

When the first teeth appear, you can start brushing. Show your child the toothbrush and the correct way to use it, the circular movements. As time permits, brushing should be a common activity in the early days, so that the little one can see the parent brushing his or her teeth. Children always imitate their parents, that’s how they learn the fastest.
Learning the correct brushing technique is not an easy task, but as manual dexterity develops, brushing becomes more effective. You don’t necessarily have to use toothpaste from the start, but when 6-8 teeth have erupted, put a tiny bit of toothpaste on the toothbrush. At the age of 2 to 3 years, he/she will most likely swallow the toothpaste and like it, but don’t worry, nothing can happen to him/her. As time goes by, make an effort to get your child spit out the toothpaste and rinse his/her mouth several times.

Decay in the primary teeth
Decay in the primary teeth is the most common problem we encounter in paediatric dentistry.
In order to prevent this, dentistry for children is based on educating children about oral care, teaching them to brush their teeth properly and providing regular early check-ups and treatment when necessary.
In order to ensure that your child learns this early, you should also learn about the modern and gentle treatment options in paediatric dentistry.
A primary tooth has a slightly different structure than a permanent tooth. Keeping them intact is very important for the health of your child, so it is worth having a check-up at a relatively frequent interval, approximately every six months, even at this age.
