It\u2019s Children\u2019s Dental Health Month, and that means it\u2019s the perfect time of the year to get your child some new oral hygiene products. Though there is a range of products on the market, children who have braces<\/a> may need different tools to keep their smiles in good shape. Continue reading to learn about four products that will help your child keep their smile healthy this month and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

#1: Electric Toothbrush<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s possible to maintain a healthy smile using the right technique with a manual brush, but many people have more success using an electric toothbrush. This is because they are more effective at plaque removal, meaning your little one will be less likely to develop cavities. This will prevent decay from interrupting their orthodontic treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2: Orthopick Flossers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These are flossers that are a good alternative to traditional dental floss for people who have braces. They are made from plastic with one side featuring a toothpick that can easily glide between brackets and the other side featuring dental floss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3: Fluoride Mouthwash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Braces create many places for bacteria and food particles to hide. This can increase your child\u2019s risk of developing cavities. Additionally, decalcification can occur with braces. This happens when minerals are pulled from the bone or teeth and leads to chalky white spots when the braces are removed. It may also eventually turn into tooth decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fluoride mouthwash can help limit decalcification. It can also get rid of bacteria and food particles your child missed when brushing and flossing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4: Orthodontic Relief Wax<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental wax helps protect your child\u2019s mouth from the sharp metal edges of braces. It\u2019s solid at room temperature and can be softened and shaped using the warmth of their hands. The wax can then be smoothed onto their braces to create a buffer between the brackets and your child\u2019s tongue, cheeks, and lips so they don\u2019t get scratched or poked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
