13 What to do: Teething rings (keep them clean) Keep them busy Get someone to give you a break Get sleep when you can Pain relief (sugar free) Follow correct instructions when using teething gels and powders
14 Dummies Prolonged dummy use can cause an open bite Affect speech A child is unable to place their tongue behind their front teeth to make certain sounds If dummies are used - Always remove a dummy when a child is speaking Avoid dipping it in anything especially sugary drinks Keep it clean (Don t suck it to clean it!) Gradually wean the baby off the dummy by the age of 1
15 Early Childhood Caries Dental decay
16 How Does Decay Affect a Pre-school Child? Pain and suffering e.g. difficulty sleeping, eating, poor appearance Infection e.g. abscess and possible life-threatening consequences Early loss of baby teeth Risk of G.A Difficulty in chewing Speech difficulties Crowding of adult teeth Ability to learn, thrive, develop Good oral health can contribute to school readiness
17 How Teeth Decay Healthy tooth Plaque/bacteria Sugar Acid Tooth decay
18 Plaque - Old Food Dead Skin Spit Germs
19 How can we help stop decay? Fluoride: Toothpaste brushing at least twice a day with Fluoride toothpaste appropriate to age Fluoride varnish Applied by Dental professional We only recommend a fluoride mouthwash, if used at a different time to brushing Reduce the amount of sugary foods and drinks consumed limit to mealtimes only
20 Fluoride Fluoride slows plaque growth. Reduces the plaque acid produced when we consume sugar. Fluoride changes the enamel so it loses fewer minerals when attacked by plaque acid
21 Tooth Brushing Delivering Better Oral Health recommendations - Children aged up to 3 years should use a smear of toothpaste containing no less than 1000 parts per million fluoride (ppm F) Children aged 3-6 years should use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste more than 1000 parts per million fluoride (ppm F) Children aged 7 and above should use fluoride toothpaste containing (ppm F) Brush twice daily last thing at night and one other occasion SPIT OUT AFTER BRUSHING DO NOT RINSE to maintain fluoride concentration levels
22 Fluoride Varnish A sticky, yellow paste that is applied to the teeth to release slowly over time FREE for children Quick and easy to apply by dental professional only Proven to reduce dental decay by 25-44% In England it is recommended that 3-16 years have it applied at least twice yearly ASK YOUR DENTIST
23 Tooth brush Choose a toothbrush with A small head Soft/medium bristles A comfortable handle Change every 3 months
24 When should you start brushing? Start brushing as soon as they get their first tooth Brush morning and night (especially night time) Start with the back teeth Aim for 2-3 minutes Help your child to brush until at least 7 years old
25 Your child s first visit to a dentist should be..? With you right from the start Regular check ups help prevent pain and discomfort for your child Children should go more regularly than adult even if they are not in pain. Be a good role model. Be positive and use encouraging words.
26 A baby s bottle can cause teeth to rot when Sugary drinks are added such as: Juice Fizzy drinks Diet drinks Tea/coffee Stick to milk and water
27 Bottle to cup Type of cup: Free flow or one without a lid When to start: When start to wean at 6 months, bottle gone by age 1 Why: Encourages baby to develop a sipping action Keeps drinking times short What not to put in it: Sugary drinks Diet drinks Tea/coffee
28 Safe drinks for teeth Milk and water only Erosion from acidic drinks e.g. fizzy pop and fruit juice Dilute juice 10 parts water, at meal times only Avoid sports tops Avoid artificially sweetened products for under 3 s
29 Erosion Is when the tooth surface is worn away by acid. Teeth become sensitive
30 Labeling & Sugars
31 Hidden Sugars Sucrose Glucose Maltose Fructose Brown sugar Treacle Concentrated fruit juice Syrup Honey
32
33 Snacks and Drinks you can Safe snacks eat between meals Savoury sandwiches e.g. banana, cheese Yoghurt Savoury dips Crackers Muffins Pitta bread Crumpets Chapattis Fruit Vegetables Plain pop corn Tea cakes Toast Bread sticks Rice cakes Water Milk
