Raising kids is tough work. As a parent, you want what’s best for them. One of the more difficult things is to teach them that things they don’t like now are actually good for them.
A good example of that is oral health. Kids rarely enjoy brushing their teeth, let alone flossing. But the more you help your kids improve their oral health at that young age, the better it will be as they grow up. This means you won’t be spending a lot of money on treating oral health issues as your kids grow up.
Bring them in early
To help get your kids on the right oral health track, you should bring them to a dentist when they get their first tooth or have their first birthday. It doesn’t matter which one happens first. Just be sure to see Dr. Neelima Chiru after whichever comes first.
Make it fun
If you can make oral health fun for your kids, the chances of them doing great with it on their own rise exponentially. Reminding them of the rewards they get at our offices in Complete Dental of Atlanta in Tucker, Georgia, when they come in for checkups. You can also think about giving kids rewards at home for good oral health.
