% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Everyone knows how important dental health is, but we often forget just how easily dental hygiene can be overlooked for kids. Dental health is important for everyone, especially for kids, and parents should make it a priority to model proper dental health habits for kids and teach them how to take properly care of their teeth.

1. Create a Routine

 

One of the most effective ways to prioritize dental health for kids is by creating a routine. Make mornings hygiene-focused, and ensure that dental hygiene is a part of that. After bath time at night, encourage them to brush and floss, and follow it with a bedtime story or something else for them to look forward to! With a routine, dental hygiene will become a habit.

 

2. Make It Fun

 

There are so many fun toothbrushes on the market and incorporating them into a child’s dental routine can be advantageous to their dental health. From light-up toothbrushes to sing-along toothbrushes to the most popular children’s cartoon character designs – there’s an infinite number of choices for fun toothbrushes to choose from and it can encourage kids to prioritize dental health and even make it fun!

 

3. Show Them an Informative Video

 

Videos are a fun and simple way to teach kids the importance of dental health. Watching videos about the benefits of dental hygiene, as well as the possible ramifications of not partaking in dental hygiene can give children a little more insight as to how important dental health is.

 

4. Play a Song

 

There is a myriad of children’s programs that feature songs about brushing and flossing your teeth, and playing them during your child’s dental routine can do wonders in motivating them to take proper care of their teeth!

 

5. Drop the Sugar

 

There is nothing wrong with the occasional weekend ice cream sundae or box of licorice at the movie theatre, but when it comes to sugar, it’s best to consume it in small amounts. Sugar, like many things, is addictive and plays a very significant role in the deterioration of dental and overall health, especially when it is frequently consumed. Try and encourage your kids to eat a healthy, balanced diet of fruits, veggies, and proteins, and keep the processed sugar to a minimum.

 

6. Don’t Skip Appointments

 

Although six-month dentist checkups seem like a hassle, it’s crucial to make every appointment for your kid when prioritizing their dental health. It can help kids understand discipline when it comes to dental health and aid in keeping their pearly whites clean! Book appointments at a local dental office to ensure your child’s dental health!

 

7. Engage

 

Children are like sponges when learning, so it would be beneficial for parents to engage and join their daily routines. Make it a family event and have everyone brush and floss before bedtime and play a fun song while doing so! By engaging, you help your child realize that dental health doesn’t have to feel like a chore – they’ll likely want to do it even more!
