This is why it can be a challenge to get young ones to take proper care of their teeth and gums daily. The good news is that dental health doesn\u2019t have to be a bore. Instead, a pediatric dentist is here to share four <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drmaggiedavis.com\/about-us.html\">ways to make oral hygiene fun for kids<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let Them Pick Their Toothbrush<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you hand a child two different toothbrushes, one that is white with a little bit of color or one that has a picture of their favorite animated character, they\u2019re likely to choose the latter. When they see that Superman, Cinderella, or even the pups from Paw Patrol are with them every morning and night when brushing, they\u2019ll get more excited about the idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next time you\u2019re at the store, take them along and let them pick out their next toothbrush. Not only will they feel part of the process, but they\u2019ll become eager to use it once they get home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Put On Some Music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Put on your child\u2019s favorite song and let them dance while caring for their teeth. Instead of forcing them to stand still and brush, adding some music to the routine will add a bit of excitement. You\u2019ll just want to make sure that the song is a full two minutes so that their teeth get a thorough cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Develop a Reward System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You want your kid to floss more, right? Whether they choose to use regular dental floss or one of the many cool and unique kid-friendly flossers, tell them that they will get a reward if they floss every day for an entire week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can set the timeframe and choose the reward, just be mindful of using candy or other sugary substances. The reward you select should be age-appropriate, so don\u2019t expect stickers to work for an older child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bring the Family Together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Who wants to brush and floss their teeth alone? Even if your child wants to take care of their smile by themselves, you can still make it a family affair. By everyone coming together in one bathroom, your child can watch you take proper care of your smile. This will encourage them to do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you can easily monitor how long and how well they\u2019re brushing and flossing, and you can have fun in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The younger children realize that brushing and flossing are fun, the greater their chances of maintaining good oral hygiene the older they get. So don\u2019t be afraid to start early. Try one of these family-friendly options to set them up for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<br><\/strong>Dr. Maggie Davis earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine and completed her pediatric residency at the University of Florida.
