The child toothbrush
We’ve talked on other occasions of the need to maintain good dental health from the first tooth. Task that in many cases, is usually delayed until the consolidation of total and permanent teeth, ignoring the importance of milk teeth are in their later development. We need to keep a careful dental hygiene just as you do with any other part of your body.
To do exist in the market, depending on age and progress in the dentition, different types of toothbrushes that will help us care, while teaching and create a habit, a healthy and necessary task that will accompany the rest of his days. Composed of special features that are tailored to children’s tastes and their own biological needs.

About two years and must have completed all the mouth which we can introduce the toothpaste, yes, always taking care not to ingest it and teaching them to use it correctly. The brush in these cases should be small, with ergonomic handle, the soft bristles and a small head that allows you to reach all corners.
It is from 6 to 7 years old when, in exchange for baby teeth to the final , we have to look for other brushes which by their size and strength, help them to continue caring for their teeth properly.
