Just because food is labeled “natural” doesn’t mean it's good for your teeth. Sweeteners like honey, agave, and maple syrup feed the same bacteria that cane sugar does. In fact, their sticky texture can help them cling to teeth longer and cause cavities. Protect your oral health by limiting how often you consume natural sweeteners.

Begin flossing your child's teeth as soon as two teeth touch. Even in small mouths, food and plaque can hide in tight spaces between teeth and possibly lead to cavities. Parents typically need to help with flossing through the early elementary years because little hands aren’t yet coordinated. Starting a consistent oral habit early can make it feel like just another part of the routine instead of a chore later on. Call +1 310-216-5754 for more information!
