Baby Oral Health Care
Did you know that you should be cleaning your child’s mouth even before their teeth come in. For good oral health you want to wipe the gums off after each feeding with a warm, wet washcloth or a dampened piece of gauze wrapped around your finger.
You can also buy thimble-like, soft rubbery devices (they fit over your index finger) to use for rubbing off excess food. Doing this will not only keep your child mouth clean but it will also make your baby become accustom to you doing this and then brushing teeth later on becomes easier.
