How to use this product

Dentists recommend replacing your toothbrush head every 3-4 months, or when the bristles become faded and worn.

What toothbrush should my child use?

The type of toothbrush your child should use depends on their age. When they’re 0 - 3 years old, you should use a washcloth or a finger-slip toothbrush with a rice-sized amount of toothpaste (it should be fluoride-free at this age).

Then, from the ages of 3 - 9, you should get a children’s toothbrush with soft bristles to be gentle on their gums - these toothbrushes tend to get bigger as your child ages, so pick one that’s suitable for their age group. When they’re 10 years old and over, they can use an adult toothbrush.

How long should children brush their teeth?

You should help your child to brush their teeth for 2 minutes at a time, twice a day, once in the morning and again before they go to bed. This will ensure that all of their teeth are brushed properly, and if you use a timer you can make brushing their teeth a game as you both count down to 2 minutes.

Why is cleaning your teeth so important?

When you clean your teeth, you remove harmful bacteria and food particles that build up on your teeth and gums throughout the day. When this isn’t cleaned away with a proper dental care routine, harmful plaque acids can damage your teeth and gums, causing tooth decay and gum disease.
