Tips to Help Your Kids Practice Good
Dental Hygiene
➢Explain the importance of dental hygiene: Slowly explain to your child that having clean teeth
is a necessary attribute for good health. Let your kids themselves know about the condition of
their teeth and the hazards of tooth decay. Let them take charge of their teeth!
➢Reward them: Make a dental care chart in your home and give your child a sticker to stick on it
every day after they brush. You can reward them with gold stars at the end of every week for
keeping up with the habit.
➢Surprise them with a dental visit: And then it’s time for the first dental check-up. Introduce the
dentist to your child and create an excellent, reliable relation between them. This will help the
child to be less afraid during their next check-up.
