Therefore, if we want our sons and daughters to acquire a habit of proper dental hygiene, we can start by brushing our teeth together with them.<\/p>\n<p>In this way, in addition to detecting how to do it, we can help them and control that they do it correctly.<\/p>\n<p>Be an example for your children and brush your teeth with them<\/p>\n<p>The concern that we usually have to correct the position of our teeth makes that, sometimes, we forget the relationship that orthodontics has with other aspects related to oral health: the health of our gums.<\/p>\n<p>That is, if you have periodontitis, you can wear orthodontics but first you must undergo a treatment against the disease and maintain optimal levels of <a href=\"https:\/\/yotuel.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">oral hygiene<\/a>, something that you should take extreme advantage of when your teeth support orthodontics. Therefore, visits to the dentist for check-ups should be made more frequently.<\/p>\n<p>At the very least, they should brush their teeth a couple of times a day. After breakfast and before going to sleep.<\/p>\n<p>A child&#8217;s mouth is not the same as an adult&#8217;s, so it is very important to use an age-appropriate toothbrush and toothpaste. Consult your dentist.<\/p>\n<p>Include fruits and vegetables in your diet. If it is true that this advice is not directly limited to oral hygiene such as brushing, it is truly relevant for your mouth that you have a balanced diet avoiding excess sugars.<\/p>\n<p>Take your children to see their dentist at least a couple of times a year. This advice acquires greater relevance if the child is in a process of changing teeth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you like these tips?<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/yotuel.com\/en\/healthy-smiles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Visit our blog<\/a> and learn more about oral health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oral health is determined by good hygiene habits that must be acquired at an early age.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3714,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-oral-hygiene"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
