Caring for oral health is always essential, but it’s vital for children. We implore parents to talk to their children about the importance of oral hygiene. But how do you encourage children to practice good dental hygiene? One of the best ways to get your kids into the routine of taking care of their oral health is by making dental hygiene fun. To start, allow your children to have some form of independence by enabling them to pick out their toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash. The freedom will encourage them to think positively about their oral health. While helping your child with their dental hygiene routine, play their favorite song as they brush their teeth and rinse their mouth. This will ensure they spend enough time on their oral care and have fun. You can even reward your child after they finish their dental routine by giving them a healthy snack or allowing them to watch their favorite TV show or movie. If your child is younger than 8 or 9, it’s best if you brush their teeth for them. Younger kids don’t have the motor skills or muscle strength to brush their teeth properly. They could have difficulty reaching some areas in their mouth on their own. By assisting them, you also show them proper brushing techniques and the importance of brushing your teeth twice a day. Some children may have anxiety or fear about going to the dentist. If so, plan a fun activity for them to do after their dentist appointment. This will give them something to look forward to and help them take their mind off their worries. Here at Bismarck Advanced Dental & Implants, we care about your children’s overall health. We are happy to share information and strategies with you and your child about healthy oral habits and why they should take special care of their mouth. Our goal is to make your entire family feel comfortable as soon as you enter our office. So, allow us to help you and your
