How to Clean your Baby’s first Teeth

It seems like yesterday when we were at our prenatal classes. I remember learning so much in one class. When my baby was born, every mommy milestone was a celebration. I finally was comfortable immersing my little man in the bath, I could breastfeed with my eyes closed, I was an expert at smelling a dirty diaper and changing it too. My baby did not need rocking to sleep anymore and with the help of my mother, he was now an expert at taking the bottle. Then the first tooth erupted! Yes, that jostled me out of my false sense of security. What did they say to do with babies first teeth by the way? Nothing! I felt betrayed! I had to do the work people.

I remember seeing all those toddlers coming into the hospital for a general anaesthetic to remove rotten teeth and cleaning. Parents neglecting baby teeth because they were not educated about oral health in young children. I surely did not want my baby to go under a general anaesthetic just because I had neglected his teeth. It is not just the anaesthetic that I was worried about; tooth decay in primary teeth can also affect permanent teeth. An infection does not know to stay in one place.

A paediatric dentist recommended I try spiffies tooth wipes. Spiffies was developed by a Paediatrician with first hand knowledge in early childhood tooth decay. Xylitol impregnated tooth wipes to the rescue!

Xylitol is a natural sugar that prevents tooth decay as bacteria that cause tooth decay cannot feed on it. The more you use this; the bacteria is starved and actually die. No bad bacteria means less plaque, less plaque means no cavities.

I will be doing a product review of spiffies in my next entry. http://bubpals.com/product/spiffies-grape-flavour-toothwipes-2/ 

In the mean time, in between time parents. Take care of that precious child and your beautiful self.
