Common conclusions
Setting a good example is a good way to help your child understand the importance of brushing. If your child regularly sees you brushing your teeth and flossing, they are more likely to do the same.
Adopting such a tradition is a good way to reduce the stress from teeth brushing. You can also make funny faces while brushing or offer small rewards. This can encourage your child to brush his teeth as recommended.
Brushing and flossing can sometimes cause difficulties for little hands. You should choose age appropriate teeth brushing tools such as small colorful toothbrush and a favorite flavored toothpaste. At the same time, creating an engaging routine can also help ensure your child develops good brushing habits.
Based on your answers, you are on the right track towards helping your child develop good brushing habits. Good job!
