Tips for children
Eruption of teeth
The last primary teeth (baby teeth) complete eruption between 20 months and 33 months and they remain in the mouth until the age of 11 or 12 years. The primary teeth play an important role for the permanent teeth as they prepare and preserve the location of it until the eruption ranging from 6 years and 13 years.
Brushing
Brushing teeth should be done at least twice a day, using a brush with soft bristles and a fluoride toothpaste (the size of a pea of toothpaste is sufficient). If the child has a susceptibility to decay, brushing should attend in addition, each meal and snack every sweet or sticky.
