Advices for Parents
TOP 10 USEFUL INFORMATION
- Bring your child to the dentist sometime after his first birthday!
- We recommend you make appointments for the little one during the first half of the day, when the child is rested and he cooperates.
- Protect your children's teeth with the help of sealing and fluoridation.
- It is important that the gums are cleaned and massaged before the first teeth grow. As the teeth begin to grow, tooth brushing can begin.
- We recommend a regular check-upevery 4 or 6 months until all the definitive teeth grow. Parents should bring their children in for consults especially in the absense of toothache.
- Only wih the help of an expert orthondontist willyou be able to find out if your child's bite is correct.
- The child should not fall asleep with the baby bottle filled with milk, juice or sweetened drinks.
- "Baby bottle cavities" are caused, besides by the presence of the sweetened drinks in the baby bottle, by the poor dental hygiene.
- Do not postpone your visit to the dentist. Milk teeth cavities evolve much faster than those of permanent teeth.
- Because the parent have the incorrect belief that "temporary teeth do not need to be treated because they will be replaced anyway", children are often brought to the dentist only after they will pain, which is a sign of an infection.
