Data indicates that 20% of 3-year-old children have more than one tooth with a cavity, while this percentage increases to over 30% in children between five and six years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To prevent these and other dental diseases, it is recommended to establish good oral hygiene habits early on, even from birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Specifically, they advise washing babies' mouths after each breast or bottle feeding with a gauze pad moistened with water to remove any milk residue. However, it is with the eruption of the first teeth that tooth brushing should begin to be established as a routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Children's mouthwashes help achieve more complete tooth and gum hygiene, which reduces the risk of cavities and other oral conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main benefit of mouthwash for children is that it offers more complete care for teeth and gums, which contributes to a reduced risk of cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, among other conditions. However, it should be noted that children's mouthwashes should always be understood as an additional step in their daily oral hygiene routine. They should never replace brushing their teeth or flossing. If you are unsure about the best mouthwash for children, it is important that it contains certain ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another interesting ingredient is panthenol, which helps protect and care for gums at the age when permanent teeth erupt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">From what age should they start using it?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is recommended to use them until children have fully developed control of their swallowing reflex, as they could accidentally swallow them. This usually happens from the age of six, coinciding with the eruption of their first permanent teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember that for the best effects of this product, it is important for children to have excellent prior oral hygiene, such as flossing and proper brushing.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Instruir a los m\u00e1s peque\u00f1os en la importancia de una buena higiene bucal es esencial para su salud bucodental.
