Question:

Is their anythng you can do about toddler tooth decay from using spill proof cups?

My son is 2 and his teeth are teeth from going to sleep with his cup in his mouth. I brush his teeth twice a day. I used Sensodyne ProNamel toothpaste. what else could I used? serious answers please.


Answers:

Brushing often and using enamel-supporting toothpaste are both good tactics. Kudos on doing that already.

All I can think of that may help would be to make sure he gets an adequate amount of calcium and Vitamin D in his diet. At 2, this is best done with various cheeses and regular milk.

Also, I'd recommend having him drink tap water; most municipal tap water contains added fluoride, which assists in preventing tooth decay. Drinking water is also a great habit to start, for him to keep later in life.

Good luck. <3
