Tooth decay prevention when nursing or bottle feeding
 |
"Dr. Day, how can I prevent tooth decay from nursing or a bottle?"
|
| |
Taking your baby off of the breast
when he/she falls asleep can prevent baby tooth decay. Hold your baby
while bottle feeding. Always take a bottle filled with milk or juice
away from the sleeping child.
If your child requires a bottle at bedtime provide a bottle filled with
water. Instead of a bottle, try comforting your child with a pacifier or
a favorite toy or blanket.
Check with your health care provider to make sure your child is getting
the right amount of fluoride. Brush your baby's teeth with a soft
toothbrush daily.
For more answers about your baby's dental care call us at 505 523-5589. |
