Teaching your child to brush their teeth is an important step in establishing good oral hygiene habits. Start by making brushing fun and engaging—use colorful toothbrushes, flavored toothpaste, or even play a favorite song to time the brushing session. Show your child the proper technique: gently brushing in small circles, covering all tooth surfaces, and brushing for at least two minutes. Encourage them to brush twice a day, especially after meals. As your child grows, gradually let them take more responsibility for brushing, but always supervise to ensure they’re doing it correctly. Positive reinforcement, like praise or a sticker chart, can also motivate them to brush regularly and develop a lifelong habit of good oral care.
