Parents must start good oral health habits for their babies right from the start. Make sure to clean your baby’s gums even before emerging baby teeth.

When baby teeth start to come in make sure to brush and clean both teeth and gums. If you are not sure the proper way to do so then take your baby to see a dentist. The dentist can show you proper way to clean and take care of your child teeth and gums. The days of children not seeing a dentist until they are two or older are long gone.
