355. Soft brushes and clean teeth

The correct choice of toothbrush should begin in early childhood and care for the teeth should begin from the birth of the first teeth. For this reason, you must use the correct brush for this stage of life.
Brushing the teeth of babies and children should be done in an enjoyable and fun, just to encourage the habit of brushing and ensure the quality of oral health in later years. According to the dentist Hugo Roberto Lewgoy at this stage of life, one must be careful not to cause an aversion of tiny in relation to oral hygiene habits.
- The gums of babies and children are very delicate and sensitive. Recommend the use of brushes with a large number of bristles and ultra texture - explains the expert.
Offer to children a toothbrush that allows the efficient and proper cleaning of the teeth without hurt or injure the gums, is the greatest contribution that parents can offer to ensure oral health throughout life for their children. Therefore, the brush is shown shortly after the outbreak of the first deciduous teeth (also known as "baby teeth"), between five and nine months, until six or seven years old, when there is the beginning of eruption of permanent teeth.
An important issue is that the child brush can not only be beautiful or full of flashy visual appeal, it must be a quality and can not injure the gums.
- The brush should provide features developed specifically for this age group, for example, the presence of a small head and anatomical setae rounded and polished and a cable that adapts easily to small little hands - he explains.

Teaching children regarding the proper way of brushing their teeth is really challenging. You cannot force them to learn it quickly because they have the tendency to not follow whenever they're strained. So, it is really important that every time you teach them, try to make the experience thrilling and enjoyable. With that, they will surely follow you.

I remember when we had a dental check up at Myrtle beach, dentists there, oftentimes advise their patients to choose a soft bristle tooth brush not only for children but also for adults because soft bristle is more effective to clean teeth unlike the hard bristle tooth brush.
