We don't hesitate to take the time to teach our child how to tie her shoe, but do we take the same time in teaching her how to brush her teeth?
A good gauge of dexterity is a child's ability to tie his or her shoe. When he has accomplished this task, this is a good time to trust your child to brush his teeth independently. Up until that time, we suggest supervision, coaching, and patience in teaching good oral hygiene habits.
Make sure you have your semi-annual cleaning appointments scheduled for 2018.
