None of us are born with the knowledge of how to care for ourselves, and that means that, as a parent, you’ve got a job to do. You need to teach them how to maintain their smile, starting with twice-daily brushing; their flossing is also vital, so be sure to give them the right tools for the job. They also need to see their dentist at least twice each year for a dedicated cleaning and examination, and missing these can put them at risk of the same oral health problems that you do.
Here at Shirley Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry in Shirley, NY, we work hard to help little ones discover their smile. And we really do appreciate the opportunity to be a part of their smile success story. If your child is due for a biannual checkup, come spend some time with our team and teach them how to properly keep up with their smile needs.
Give them a great oral health education. Call Shirley today!
