Hello, very good question
American Society of Pediatric Dentistry recommends using toothpaste containing at least 1000 ppm fluoride as it helps make teeth stronger and prevents cavities.
Most kids toothpastes in India have only 500 ppm of that, so wouldn’t recommend a kids toothpaste for a child of 7 years of age.
You can use regular white Colgate or oral B (avoid herbal toothpastes as they generally do not have fluoride).
Use a good pea size amount and brush twice daily.
Next Steps
However, if there is any other issue like accepting the toothpaste, we would be happy to guide you.
Please book a consultation with your pediatric dentist who can guide you after having a look at your child’s teeth with the products that would suit them best
