Brushing For Children
As your child grows, you can start to introduce a soft children’s toothbrush to their routine. From around 2 to 6 years of age we recommend using a low fluoride based toothpaste. Once they switch to fluoride toothpaste, we recommend using a very small amount (approximately half the size of a pea). This is the case as most children will swallow a small amount. Children’s Toothpastes are specially formulated and have reduced levels of fluoride, which effectively protect and strengthen your child’s teeth.
Young children learn best by imitation. Brushing together can help make brushing a fun part of your child’s daily routine. |
