Some fun tips to make your little one fall in love with dental hygiene.

Your child's overall health greatly depends on their dental health. They support your child's speech and eating. As your child grows, practising good dental habits now will help them later on. Poor oral care can lead to disease, infection, or other dental problems.

Here are some suggestions to make brushing your teeth more pleasurable:

• Let kids choose their own toothbrush with your help. They can pick the one that features their favourite character or colour.

• Let kids choose the toothpaste if they want to. They can choose the flavour they prefer.

• Watch dental hygiene videos or read dental hygiene books.

• Establish a timer to make sure kids brush their teeth for two minutes. To help them stay on time, play their favourite song.

· Instead, offer something healthy or simple, such as apple slices or a gold star.

· Plan a fun activity to do after your child's dentist appointment.
