The easiest way to get your kids to brush their teeth is to make it fun. If you’re excited about brushing, they will be too. Children tend to mimic their parents’ behaviors, for better or worse. So set a good example by participating in a regular oral hygiene routine by brushing twice a day and flossing every day.
Children may need a little guidance when flossing until their motor skills are developed enough to do it on their own. If you’re still having trouble motivating them to participate in oral hygiene routines, let our dentist know at your appointment, and they can offer some helpful advice.
