What Type Of Toothpaste Should I Buy For My Child?
There are tons of toothpaste out there for your child and it
can be confusing to determine not only when you should use toothpaste for your
little one, but what kind should you be purchasing in order to keep their teeth
healthy for a lifetime. Teeth are the hardest item in our body and the enamel
on the teeth, while it does wear down, with healthy habits is capable of making
your smile last a lifetime. Taking extra care when purchasing toothpaste can
help keep their smile healthy. Here are a couple of tips to buying toothpaste
for your child.
Prior to your child being able to successfully spit you may
want to avoid toothpaste that has fluoride in it. This is a great time to use a
toothpaste with Xylitol in it. This will help protect their teeth while keeping
them from having build up of plaque. You may want to consider which type of
flavored toothpaste is right, especially with younger children. This can
determine whether they build healthy habits for a lifetime.
Once your child can spit, there are a whole other variety of
toothpastes available. It may be best to look for the. Also toothpaste flavors
are more varied than the ones with Xylitol. So, keep it simple. Buy a flavor your
child likes and pick one that has fluoride. It will help keep their teeth
healthy.
