Home Care Tips
Taking care of those tiny teeth starts at home. Before teeth even show up, wipe those gums gently. Once teeth make an appearance, brush them softly twice a day. Keep sweets rare and drink plenty of water. Letting your kids pick their toothbrush and toothpaste can make them excited about brushing. Need more tips? Check out our advice on spotting gum disease.
