Learning Tip: Frustration-Free Tooth-Brushing Routine

Remember how excited you were waiting for your child’s first tooth? And now… he has nearly a mouthful! Caring for these gorgeous new teeth can sometimes be a challenge. Professional dental associations recommend brushing your child’s teeth. However, getting a good angle (both physically and mentally!) and cooperation from your little one can be difficult when it comes time to brush teeth. Ask your dentist for suggestions and then make it a regular habit. More information can be found at American Family Physician.

Scout and Violet can help in teeth brushing! How? Download a song that is about the same length as your child’s brushing routine (check with your dentist for brushing duration). Then, bring puppy pal into the bathroom and play that song. Not only does this provide a fun timer, but also gives your child an approving audience!
