To help prevent it, try to avoid sticky, chewy, high-sugar foods. Do not let your child carry around a bottle or sippy cup of milk, juice or sugary drinks between meals. Do not put her to bed with a bottle or food. And brush her teeth twice a day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ftf-stg.magnetry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Prevent-Tooth-Decay.png\" alt=\"Prevent-Tooth-Decay\" width=\"1224\" height=\"792\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Treat Tooth Decay<\/h2>\n<p>Tooth decay causes pain and infections. It can lead to serious problems with eating, speaking, sleeping and learning. Take your child to the dentist if she:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Has brown or black spots on her teeth.<\/li>\n<li>Has tooth pain.<\/li>\n<li>Has a tooth injury or other dental problem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>THINGS YOU CAN DO<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6440 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ftf-stg.magnetry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Oral-Health-2.jpg\" alt=\"Child at the dentist\" width=\"250\" height=\"314\" \/>Take Care of Your Baby\u2019s Teeth<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Starting from birth, wipe your baby\u2019s gums with a clean, damp cloth or gauze pad every day.<\/li>\n<li>When your baby has his first tooth, start to brush 2 times a day with a smear of fluoride toothpaste. Increase to a pea-sized amount of toothpaste when your child turns 3.<\/li>\n<li>Ask your baby\u2019s doctor about fluoride supplements or varnishes, starting at 6 months. Fluoride helps prevent tooth decay, and your water may not have it.<\/li>\n<li>The bacteria that cause tooth decay can spread from mouth to mouth. So do not pass food, toothbrushes, pacifiers or spoons from your mouth to your baby\u2019s mouth.<\/li>\n<li>You will need to help your children brush their teeth until they can do it themselves. This is usually not until ages 6 to 8.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Find a Dentist<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>To find a dentist for your child, talk to your own dentist. Or visit the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.azda.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Arizona Dental Association<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>For low-cost dental care, check with local clinics and dental schools.

Gum disease can cause your baby to be born too early and too small.<\/li>\n<li>Keep your teeth clean. Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste. Floss daily between the teeth, close to the gums.<\/li>\n<li>Try to see a dentist as soon as you are pregnant.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure you are eating a well-balanced diet so your baby develops strong teeth and bones. And take your daily prenatal vitamins.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn about keeping your child&#8217;s teeth healthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":6439,"parent":0,"template":"","tags":[24,79,85,86],"class_list":["post-355","parent-kit","type-parent-kit","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-health-nutrition","tag-oral-health","tag-pregnancy","tag-family-support","parent-kit-category-your-familys-well-being"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.8 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Oral Health - First Things First<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Healthy teeth are important.
