A child’s first tooth is exciting. It’s the start of a lifetime of smiling! But tooth decay can start as soon as a baby’s teeth start to come in, usually by age 6 months. Tooth decay can cause pain, which may make it hard for a child to eat or. Healthy baby teeth are also necessary to hold space in the mouth for permanent teeth that will come in later.

This brochure is designed to help parents learn why baby teeth—though temporary—are very important. It instructs parents on how to take care of their child’s mouth as teeth develop and how to establish good brushing habits. It also recommends parents bring their child to the dentist before their first birthday for a “well-baby checkup” for their teeth and mouth.

Each pack includes 50 brochures.
