Advice for parents on baby oral health.
Parents who give their babies sweet drinks in a bottle have been advised on a number of ways to help reduce the likelihood that they will develop tooth decay. 
According to Health Day, babies’ gums should be wiped with an absorbent pad after feeding, while as soon as the first tooth breaks, it should be brushed regularly and when the child has all their teeth through, they should start using floss.
In addition, children should not be allowed to take drinks to bed with them and they should ensure they use a fluoridated toothpaste to help strengthen tooth enamel.
Elsewhere, Cosmetic Dentistry Guide recently reported George Armelagos, an anthropologist from Emory University in Atlanta, has claimed defects which can develop in the tooth enamel while in the womb or during a child’s first few years could provide a link to premature death.
Therefore, it is important for parents to schedule a check-up for their children as soon as possible after they are born.
