What age do you think a child should start flossing when they brush their teeth?!


Question: What age do you think a child should start flossing when they brush their teeth?
My daughter is only 3 and was born with no enamel on her teeth at all. We've had to have crowns put on her teeth to prevent any cavaties from forming when she was 2.5. When do you think kids should start flossing and using mouth wash, ect?

I think maybe 4 or 5 is a good time to start flossing and mouth wash i think they shouldnt start till about 7 or 8



My kids started a dental routine as soon as they had teeth. We floss every night and use kids mouthwash. The kids use the fun dinosaur flossers.
