How to help children brush their teeth properly

Children exposed to fluoride when their teeth are developing, e.g. through using a kids’ fluoride toothpaste, are found to have shallower grooves in their teeth, which helps with easier plaque removal. 2 Plaque can form a hard substance called tartar if it’s not removed with twice-daily brushing, and tartar build-up can eventually cause tooth decay by eating into tooth enamel. From the age of 3, children should be offered fluoride varnish application at least twice a year. Younger children may also be offered this treatment if your dentist thinks they need it.
