Kids and Toothpaste

Getting your kids to brush their teeth with a natural and safe toothpaste can be a challenge at times. First you want to do is find a natural toothpaste that you want children. You will want to stay away from the mainstream kids toothpaste that containerization chemicals, such as:
Alcohol - dries the tissues. May only be used for certainement treat disorders gum Artificial sweeteners-can health accordion thing to some studies Parabens influence - into the body through the skin and mouth and fat cells attach and can be linked to breast cancer Salicylates - natural and synthetic, salicylates are moving up the list or causing allergies and other problems Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) - dries the tissue, outbreak of canker sores Triclosan - antibiotic. CDC reports on the use of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic-resistant bacteria
As you can see the ingredients are vey important to watch. Once you have found a natural xylitol toothpaste for kids for your child, it is important to also give them a toothbrush that fits their mouth. It may seem obvious, but a small toothbrush is best for smallmouth. Even if you have sensitive teeth or gums children do you pick up a soft toothbrush for them. When children are in pain while brushing their teeth will be difficult to get them to do it. trying to make a colorful and fun toothbrush for them to find.
Explain to children that the bacteria in their mouth really starts to mount after eating, so it's important to get rid of the bacteria after each meal, so they do not end up with holes.
Try to make brushing teeth fun, tell jokes and just having a good time with it. Also ends communicating them to a good technique to use. When they are done go ahead and back properly brush their teeth for them if necessary. Let them know that big kids have their own teeth, and white teeth look good. It will only be a small amount of toothpaste on their brush, about the size of a grain. This is important, so they do not get a large amount of foam in their mouth and brushing is uncomfortable.
I have a great all natural kids toothpaste that my kids love, it's made by Junior Varsity Naturals. It is for children 2 years and older. They can even swallow the toothpaste without worrying or dangerous chemicals. Here is the list of safe ingredients:
