Children's relationship with dental health begins at the same stage as the first teeth peek through. As a parent, it feels exciting to follow the development of children and many buy their first toothbrush with great enthusiasm! A large part of children's upbringing is about their teeth. But to ensure children's good oral health, we parents need to be role models. Make brushing your teeth a shared activity!
The general rules for maintaining strong and healthy teeth are the same for adults as for children. Brush your teeth for two minutes, twice a day, visit your dentist and dental hygienist regularly, and brush with fluoride to prevent cavities.
The biggest difference is that children's toothpaste contains a smaller amount of fluoride than the toothpaste used by adults. The reason is simple. Children often swallow the toothpaste, and too much fluoride can result in a loose stomach.
Gumpearl toothpaste tablets for children are strawberry flavored and work in the same way as our other toothpaste tablets. One tablet is put in the mouth, chewed for a while and then you brush your teeth as usual. The tablets are recommended for children from 3 years of age and are available in a glass jar and refill bag. The tablets also contain 1000 ppm fluoride and are recommended by the Swedish Dental Association. Since the tablets are portioned, you can be sure that your child's teeth get the protection they need with every toothbrushing session.
As a parent, it's easy to go the extra mile to ensure that our children get the very best. We don't want them to get cavities, hurt, or otherwise suffer because of their teeth. But are you just as meticulous about your own oral health?
Gumpearl toothpaste tablets are available for the whole family and all toothpaste tablets work in the same way. In addition to strong and healthy teeth for all family members, it also means that you can brush together to reduce your carbon footprint and actively work towards sustainable habits. As a parent, you are a role model and are absolutely crucial in your children's relationship with dental and oral health!
By introducing children to more sustainable alternatives at home, you also create an extension to the sustainability work that children learn about at school. We should not underestimate children's humanity and desire to make an impact! In addition, many children find toothpaste tablets to be a more fun way to brush their teeth.
