While there’s no guaranteed way to prevent cavities, there are steps you can take that will greatly reduce the chances of your child developing them. Our recommendations include:
Limit sugars and starches in your child’s diet
Ensure that your child brushes their teeth twice a day, flosses once a day, and risnes between meals
Introduce sippy cups around age one
Consider having dental sealants applied to your child’s back molars
Bring your child to Chapko & Shah Modern Dentistry twice a year for dental exams
