Once your little one turns three, it's time to use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste to brush his teeth.

Make sure your child spit out the toothpaste after brushing. instead of swallowing it.

Milk teeth do not fall out all at once - the first ones will fall out when your child is about six or seven, and the last ones will fall out around ages 10 to 12.

Protect your child's pearly whites. Bring him for a dental check-up once a every six months or as advised by the dentist.

Encourage the little one to take a short 5 - minute break after 30 to 40 of near work activity.
