Background and details
The parents have been charged with To brush children's teeth for the first few years. The goal isn't just to remove the dental plate but also to teach and create a habit so that the child incorporates his or her teeth cleanliness into his or her daily hygiene.
The dental plate It's a clear film, but sometimes it has added colors, with a green or an orange color. That film should be removed with strict hygiene, and as they have already been coloured, it's a sign that brushing is very bad. When black pigmentations come up with a reservoir of saliva minerals, it's hard to get rid of at home. Generally, as the child grows up these deposits are gone.
How to clear the gums of babies?
During the first few months of life, you have to have a brush but you have to clear your child's mouth with a gauze.
How to clear your milk teeth?
In children under 3 years old, parents will have to do all the work as soon as their first milk teeth appear. During these first few years, the use of dental pulp is unnecessary: it complicates the vision of the teeth and stimulates saliva secretion. The use of them creates an uneasiness and the child can also swallow them.
At about 3 years old, the child should start to manage his or her brush by itself, although the results with respect to plaque disposal are poor and it's his or her responsibility to make sure that they are clear.
How should dental brushes be for children?
The brush should have a small head, be nylon, soft and rounded. We have to change that often. Also, it's interesting that you have elements that make you attractive: bright color, music... and so forth, as this helps us to put the hygiene routine as a game and to motivate the child.
How should children brush their teeth?
To avoid forgetting a tooth, parents first and children later, as they grow up, should be used to:
- To start brushing always by the same arcade and by the same side.
- Clean up all the outer surfaces of an arcade (for example from the top) and then all from inside.
- To end with chewing surfaces
- Gather your tongue
- Use silk between your teeth
- rinse and remove remains.
