How to Brush Children's Teeth

Flossing

You should start flossing your child’s teeth when they touch each other. Back teeth will usually be the ones to touch each other first. You can use a piece of dental floss or a child's dental flosser. Kneel in front of or to the side of your child. Floss in between all of the touching teeth, starting in the back and working your way to the front. Be sure to floss gently underneath the gumline.
