Early tooth decay doesn’t always start with a cavity. 🦷👀 White spots on teeth can be an early sign of enamel weakening, especially near the gums or between teeth.

Watching for sensitivity, discoloration, or changes in texture can help parents catch problems early before they worsen.

Dental sealants help protect the grooves of back teeth where cavities often start. 🦷✨ They’re quick to apply, completely painless, and can reduce cavity risk in molars by up to 80% for many children.

Sealants are often recommended once permanent molars come in and can last for several years with good care.

National Doughnut Day is a fun excuse for a sweet treat, but sugary snacks can stick to teeth long after the last bite. 🍩🦷 Sticky sugars feed cavity causing bacteria and can wear down enamel over time.

Rinsing with water after sweets and waiting about 30 minutes before brushing can help protect little smiles.
