Teeth are an important part of your body and help you with a lot of different things. They help you talk and speak clearly, and they give your face its shape. They also help you eat your favourite things by breaking the food into smaller pieces, making it easier to swallow and digest. That is why it is so important to take care of them. Brushing them and using fluoride toothpaste two times a day is one example. And of course, it’s easier to keep your teeth healthy when toothbrushing is fun and inspiring, right from the start.
Get a healthy start from the beginning
From the first tooth
It’s important to start with good oral care from the very first tooth. When do babies get teeth? It varies from child to child, but the first teeth usually come around 6-8 months. As soon as the first tooth appears, it’s great to start trying to create a brushing routine for your child. We have gathered everything you need to know about baby teething, the signs and symptoms to look out for, when the teething happens and how long it lasts. Find it all in our tips and advice section.
