Dental tips to make the “tooth fairy” happy!

It can be hard for young kids to understand the importance of oral health. Tooth fairies, however are doing a great job in helping kids get more excited about taking care of their teeth by leaving teeth friendly gifts and money!

There is no harm in tickling your kids imagination if that serves their health, you know. Below are some dental tips that kids understand and will appreciate if they can have fun with it:

• Be a tooth fairy’s friend by fighting her enemies – Tell your kids that germs make the worst tooth fairy enemies. Let them know that brushing twice a day can fight her enemies and in turn will make her really happy. To make this fight even more fun is to sing a song while killing germs.
• Use floss to befriend tooth fairy – Let your kids know that brushing alone may not be all-effective. Flossing can take out all the hidden germs and kill them.To make brushing a fun activity read our blog here
