Even if itās half juice, half waterāfrequent sipping still bathes baby teeth in sugar and makes the mouth more acidic by lowering the pH more FREQUENTLY. I know many people do this for cost savings, and this PSA is a separate awareness point around frequency of juice and dental health! Both can co-exist š ā° Itās not just about how much sugarāitās how OFTEN their teeth are exposed to it. š§ Aim to stick to water between meals, and if youāre offering juice, pair it with a meal when saliva is already flowing to help protect their teeth. #babyteeth #cavityprevention #toddlermomlife #parenting #parents
š¶š¦· POV: You had cavities as a kid and worry your baby will too. š¦· Same. I had cavities in my baby teethāand grew up in a time when dentistry was mostly reactive. You went to the dentist when something hurt. The focus was on treating problems, not preventing them. Now we know better. Cavities are the #1 chronic disease in children, and they donāt just disappear with baby teeth. Theyāre linked to decay in adult teeth and can affect nutrition, sleep, and overall health. šŖ„ As a pediatric dentist and a mom, I get how hard it can be to stay on top of routines with a squirmy toddler or an overtired baby. š Thatās why I created @pediatric.dentist.mom and built @Firstgrināto make early dental care practical, evidence-based, and easy for real life. š¦· Our Intro Oral Care Kits are the baby registry gift I wish existed when I was a new momāpacked with everything you need to get started (no gimmicks, just the essentials, curated by me). š± And our Firstgrin companion app helps guide you through each stage with: ā What to expect by age ā When to start brushing, flossing, and seeing a dentist ā Reminders, real-life tips, and videos ā A personalized oral health risk quiz for your family š” If youāve ever thought, āI just want to do this right, but I donāt know where to start,ā youāre in the right place. š¦· If this was helpful, share it and follow @pediatric.dentist.mom for more tipsāand check out Firstgrin for the kits and support I designed to make it all less overwhelming. āDid you have cavities growing up? #firstgrin #babyteeth #momlife #baby
