Babies
are very sensitive in nature as well as physique. They are prone to the
infections caused by microbes as well as seasonal allergies. Mothers mostly
look after the entire needs of the baby. From feeding it to cleaning it on time
and giving medicines for better health. However, there is one thing which is
most often neglected and that is the dentals of the babies. Babies do not
develop teeth until the age of 8 months hence the caregiver does not consider
them eligible for cleaning or maintaining. However they have not grown any
teeth but the gums are present hence they should be cleaned from time to time.
You will not be tooth brushing
initially but will be gum brushing. In addition, when the baby develop their
teeth, it is important to clean them properly with appropriate brushing
technique.
· Use baby toothbrush: instead of using just
any toothbrush available, you must use baby toothbrush. These brushes are made
especially for the baby keeping in mind the size, shape and pressure points of
the baby mouth. However, the adult brush can also clean the dentals but it can
also damage the soft gums as well making them tender. The baby brush has soft
bristles hence suitable for the baby.read more..
