Babies Teething



When your baby is around two monts old they will start teething. The first sign is when they start to drool, at this time you should put a bib on your baby to prevent any irration that may happen because of the wetness.
When your baby is holding a rattle they would also be old enough to grip a teething ring. It would be a great idea to have a couple in the fridge for hen you baby needs them. It is not a very great idea to freeze the teething ring because it could cause the babies gums to be frost bit.
Around the age of six to nine months the first tooth will appear. However if you or any other close family member had teeth sooner your baby's teeth may erupt sooner too. When your baby's teeth erupt they need to be cleaned. It is easy to clean your baby's teeth using a washcloth or a soft toothbrush.Work from home today!
It is time to start flossing your baby's teeth when they have many teeth that have erupted out of the gum. This can also help them fine tune their fine motor skills. There have been studies done by the American Dental Association that have proven that brushing alone will not remove all the food stuck in teeth so flossing also needs to be done. When flossing is not done daily cavities will appear sooner.

A dentist needs to see your child twice per year. Your child should see their dentist when they are able to sit for as long as ten minutes. This needs to be done by the time your child turns three years old.
