1
Brush your teeth twice a day
Use a soft toothbrush, fluoride toothpaste and brush
once in the morning and once at night.
Don’t swallow the toothpaste – spit it out in the basin!
2
Limit sugary snacks & drinks
Remember to eat lots of fruit and vegetables! Try to limit sugary
drinks – water or a glass of milk is healthier for your teeth.
3
Visit your dentist
Visit your dentist or dental hygienist regularly to help keep
your teeth and gums healthy.
Mom and Dad: Start dental visits early & build enthusiasm.
4
Floss
As soon as you’ve got 2 teeth that touch, you (along with your
Mom or Dad) should floss to remove the plaque.
Hold the floss between your fingers, and gently rub the floss
between your teeth.
5
Change your toothbrush every 3 months
If the bristles on your toothbrush are looking worn, they won’t
remove as much plaque so it’s time for a new one!
Ask your Mom or Dad for a new toothbrush every 3 months.
