🪥 At what age should your child start brushing their teeth?
Many parents are surprised to learn that brushing should begin as soon as the first tooth appears! Early oral care helps prevent cavities, protect developing teeth, and build healthy habits from the start.
✨ Tips for parents:
• Use a soft-bristled toothbrush
• Start with a tiny smear of fluoride toothpaste
• Help your child brush until they can do it properly on their own
A healthy smile starts with healthy habits—and it’s never too early to begin.
