Establishing good oral hygiene habits at a young age sets children up for a lifetime of good oral health. But teaching children to brush their teeth properly can be difficult. They may lose focus or just not want to brush their teeth. However, it’s very important not to give up. It may be tempting to think that baby teeth are destined to fall out anyway, that brushing really isn’t that important at a young age, but that just isn’t true. Children who suffer tooth decay that leads to early tooth loss often have orthodontic problems and can also suffer from infections that affect their health. So don’t give up on teaching your little one how to brush. Your Grand Prairie children’s dentist, Dr. Quinn Smith, shares some tips for teaching kids how to brush their teeth correctly.
