Myth or Fact?

Let's put some common children's oral health myths to bed...

❌ Myth: Baby teeth don't matter because they'll fall out.
✅ Fact: Healthy baby teeth are essential for eating, speaking and guiding adult teeth into the correct position.

❌ Myth: Brushing harder cleans teeth better.
✅ Fact: Gentle brushing with fluoride toothpaste twice a day is the best way to keep teeth and gums healthy.

❌ Myth: Sugar is the only cause of tooth decay.
✅ Fact: It's not just how much sugar children eat, it's how often they have it throughout the day. It is also a combination of sugar and bacteria that is the cause of decay.

🍦 Happy National Ice Cream Day! 🍦

Who doesn't love an ice cream on a warm summer's day? It's a fun treat for children, but it's also worth remembering that ice cream is high in sugar, which can increase the risk of tooth decay.

The good news is that treats can still be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. Encourage children to enjoy sugary foods at mealtimes rather than grazing throughout the day, and make sure they brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, especially before bed.

Healthy smiles start with healthy habits, so enjoy your ice cream, have fun in the sunshine, and keep those little teeth sparkling all summer long! 🦷💙
