How can I prevent tooth decay from nursing or a bottle? |
|
Taking your baby off of the breast when he/she falls asleep can
prevent baby tooth decay. Hold your baby while bottle feeding. Always
take a bottle filled with milk or juice away from the sleeping child.
|
|
|
If your child requires a bottle at bedtime provide a bottle filled
with water. Instead of a bottle try comforting your child with a
pacifier or a favorite toy or blanket. |
|
| Check with your health care provider to make sure your child is getting the right amount of fluoride. Brush your baby's teeth with a soft toothbrush daily. |
