Toothpaste alone cannot give full protection.
You have to maintain few other things like-
- Good brushing habit
- Reduce sugar exposure
- Guide your kids, while eating, not to hold food in mouth for a long time.
- Give them a balanced natural diet
- Avoid processed food as much as possible
- Use a fluoridated toothpaste like kidodent.
Next Steps
Get a dental check up every 6 months

1.use small head pedo or kids toothbrush.
2. Use ultrasoft variety of the toothbrush.
3. use fluoride containing toothpaste in a pea size amount only twice daily on regular basis using 'ROUND- ROUND 'technique.
4.get dental consultation once every 6months.
7.change toothbrush once every 3months.
