Toddler dental care

................."Mainly, what you're doing when you're brushing your toddler's teeth is the mechanical removal of plaque with the toothbrush bristles," Kitchens explains. "So, if they swallow that fluoride free gel, just keep brushing their teeth."

Kitchens says kids should brush at least twice a day, once in the morning and most importantly before bed. Once they've brushed, no food or drink before bedtime, unless it's water. Kitchens says allowing kids to have juice and milk is a recipe for cavities...................

I wonder how many parents realize children swallowing fluoride toothpaste are at risk of fluorosis.
