The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends wiping your baby’s gums and teeth (when they emerge) with a soft washcloth or baby toothbrush using a smear or rice-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>From ages 3 to 6, use a pea-size amount of fluoride toothpaste to prevent decay as your child’s teeth grow and change.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Most children can start brushing their teeth on their own by the time they enter elementary school. Until then, we recommend helping out your little one!\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Your child should brush twice a day for two minutes each time, preferably after breakfast and before bedtime. Use back-and-forth, up-and-down, and circular motions to ensure a thorough cleaning.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Encourage your child to brush their tongue and gums as well. Bacteria and plaque linger on soft tissues in the mouth, so keeping their tongue and gums clean is essential to oral hygiene and good breath.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Be sure to use a soft-bristled toothbrush that won’t irritate your child’s sensitive teeth and gums. You can make it more fun by letting your child pick out their own toothbrush–perhaps one with bright colors or their favorite cartoon character. Whatever it takes to make them excited about brushing their teeth! We also recommend switching out their toothbrush or electric brush head every 3-4 months or sooner if your child has been sick.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Flossing facts\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Your child should floss at least once a day. It’s best to floss at bedtime so your child can remove any food particles that are caught in their teeth. Smiles in Motion Pediatric Dentistry and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommend that parents and caregivers help with flossing until at least age 8.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>If your child has a hard time using traditional floss, floss picks are a kid-friendly option (some even come in animal shapes!).\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Eat tooth-friendly nutrients\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>The adage is true: you are what you eat. Foods that are rich in calcium like milk and other dairy products, broccoli, and leafy green vegetables help your child build strong teeth and bones.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>If your child is lactose-intolerant or “vegetable-adverse” (as a lot of kids are), ask your child’s doctor about calcium supplements.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Many other vitamins–including vitamin D, copper, zinc, potassium, iodine, and iron–also contribute to the health of your child’s teeth.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Skip the sugar\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Many parents ask themselves, “Why does my child get so many cavities?” Too often, the answer is sugary drinks. Most fruit juices are loaded with extra sugar–often just as much as soda. Sports drinks, lemonade, sweet tea, juice, and chocolate or strawberry milk all contain extra sugar and should be avoided.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Hydration is key to your child’s overall health! Kids ages 6 and up should aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day vs. sweet or acidic drinks.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>If your child craves the sweetness of fruit, eating fresh fruit is a more nutritional option than juice and far kinder to their teeth.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Avoid sweets, starchy snacks (like crackers) and sticky treats (“fruit” snacks, raisins, and gummy vitamins). Low sugar full-fat yogurt, white milk, cheese, applesauce, and mixed nuts are great snack options.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>We are all human! We understand that sometimes your child will have drinks and foods that aren’t tooth-friendly. Make sure they brush thoroughly afterwards.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Chew sugarless gum (once your child is old enough)\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Chewing gum stimulates the flow of saliva, which helps remove bacteria from your child’s teeth.\u003Cbr />\nGum that is sweetened with sugar only feeds this bacteria, causing plaque build-up and tooth decay.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Always opt for gum sweetened with xylitol, a natural sugar that helps reduce cavities more than other sweeteners.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>And of course, always chew carefully to avoid choking! According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, the recommended age for chewing gum is four years old and up.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Fluoride for the win\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Fluoride, a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen tooth enamel, plays a vital role in children’s dental hygiene. Your Smiles in Motion pediatric dentist can administer fluoride treatments to help prevent tooth decay and cavities.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Cp>Your child can start receiving fluoride treatments as soon as their first tooth appears.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>If your water supply at home is not fluoridated–for example, if your water comes from a well or your child prefers bottled water–ask us about supplement options.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Prevent decay with sealants\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Dental sealants are another way to prevent tooth decay in your child’s permanent teeth. Sealants only take minutes to apply, but the benefits last for years.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>While fluoride strengthens their enamel against tooth decay, sealants prevent food from getting stuck in the tiny grooves on the surface of your child’s teeth.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>For maximum effectiveness, sealants should be applied to each set of molars as soon as they erupt – which typically begins around age six or seven.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Get regular cleanings\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Regular cleanings–usually every six months–help remove the plaque build-up that can lead to tooth decay and cavities.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Focus on the positives of each visit and try not to share your personal fears or negative feelings about going to the dentist.\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Catching dental issues early means that your board-certified Smiles in Motion pediatric dentist can treat the problem right away and hopefully prevent more serious issues in the future.\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Schedule your appointment today\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Want to learn more tips and tricks to protect your child’s ever-changing smile?

Your child’s diet contributes greatly to their physical health and to their oral health as well. Dietary needs will vary as children move through different stages of growth, but have no doubt–foods that are good for your child’s body are also good for their teeth.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>So, let’s take a moment to digest (pun intended) some ways that you can help your child get the nutrition they need for healthy growth and development, including their teeth.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Use MyPlate to plan meals\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The MyPlate tool provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is an excellent source of dietary guidelines for all ages. Use this interactive tool to plan meals that ensure your family is getting the right amount of all five major food groups (fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins, and dairy).\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Strong bones = stronger smiles\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Strong bones not only prevent fractures and other injuries, but they also support your child’s teeth–and stronger teeth help kids prevent tooth decay, cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Foods that are rich in vitamins (especially calcium) and protein are the building blocks for healthy bone growth and should be eaten daily. These include meats, poultry, dairy products, green leafy vegetables, and fresh fruits.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, too many children in the U.S. do not get enough calcium in their daily diet. The recommended amount of calcium varies by age, requiring more as kids get older:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Age one to three: 700 mg each day\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Age four to eight: 1,000 mg each day\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Age nine to 18: 1,300 mg each day\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Cp>Of course, dairy products–such as milk, cheese, and yogurt–are great sources of calcium. If your child is lactose-intolerant, many dairy products are now available in lactose-free versions that are still rich in calcium. Your child can also get calcium from non-dairy foods like broccoli and beans.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Have healthy snacks on hand\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Kids often have a habit of grabbing sugary foods and drinks when they snack. Sugar is notorious for creating cavities, so it’s a good idea to always have healthy snack options on hand after school or between meals. When possible, avoid sweets, starchy snacks (such as potato chips or crackers), and sticky treats (such as “fruit” snacks, raisins, or granola bars).\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Some healthy snack ideas include:\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>Celery or cucumber slices served with hummus dip (bonus: both celery and cucumber contain a high volume of water)\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Sliced apples served with peanut butter for extra protein\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Tubes or cups of low-sugar yogurt\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>Cubed, sliced, or stick cheese (fun fact: cheese triggers the flow of saliva, which helps wash food particles away from teeth)\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003Ch2>Speaking of saliva\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>If you plan to give your child any sugary treats, give them as dessert immediately after mealtime rather than as a snack. Why? There’s usually an increased amount of saliva in the mouth at mealtime, making it easier to wash sugary food particles away from teeth.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Certain sugary treats like lollipops and hard candies continuously coat the teeth with sugar, contributing to tooth decay. Sweets that linger on the teeth should always be avoided, even after mealtime.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Stay focused on what your child sips\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Staying hydrated is critical to our overall health. By age six, all kids should try to drink at least eight glasses of water per day.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Other than water, anything that your child sips on throughout the day (or night) can cause cavities, including soda, juice, sports drinks, lemonade, and chocolate, strawberry, or white milk. Many of these sugary beverages, especially soda, can speed up dehydration as well.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>The sugar content in soda combines with bacteria in your child’s mouth to form acid, which attacks their teeth. Even diet or sugar-free soda contains acid–so it’s best to avoid soda if possible.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>When in doubt, water is always the best choice! For extra calcium, you can encourage your child to drink white milk at meals and water between meals.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>Set a positive example\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Your child will value their health and their teeth the same way that you value yours. They are also likely to eat and drink whatever is available to them at home. You can set a positive example by providing healthy foods and encouraging good oral hygiene habits.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>When it’s time to visit the dentist, focus on the positives!
