Information About Babies Teething
Around two months of age babies start the teething stage. Your baby will begin to drool at first and it is recommended that you place a bib on your baby to stop any irritation that could happen from the wetness.
When your baby is holding a rattle they would also be old enough to grip a teething ring. It is a good idea to have a few in the fridge for when your baby starts to fuss. Do not freeze the teething ring because it will cause the baby to frost bite their hands and gums.
The first teeth will appear around the age of six to nine months. But if you or any of the siblings of your baby has had teeth come out at an earlier age your baby may also. No matter what, when that tooth come out it will need to be cleaned. It can be cleaned by wiping it with a facecloth or you may choose to use a soft wet toothbrush.
When your child has many teeth that have erupted you can begin to introduce flossing. This can also help them fine tune their fine motor skills. There have been studies done by the American Dental Association that have proven that brushing alone will not remove all the food stuck in teeth so flossing also needs to be done. Without this flossing daily cavities and nasty breath is sure to come quicker.
Children should see their dentist two times in a year. The very first time should be when they are able to sit for ten minutes. This needs to be done by the time your child turns three years old.
