Oral Health - Disciplined Dental Habits Hold the Key


 
Health
As a young mother, it is natural that you are concerned about the oral health of your child, if you have read the recent reports from the Australian Dental Association. This report reveals that over 60% of parents have accepted that their kids will face an oral health problem - tooth decay. This is the most common but preventable condition that kids all over the world face during their growing years.

It is pertinent at this point to say that the onset of oral health diseases is not always due to any inaction on the part of parents or kids. Dental disease is caused due to the accumulation of bacteria within the oral cavity, and is completely preventable.

The good news is that there has been extensive coverage by media like the New York Times and ABC News about this growing phenomenon of preschoolers getting cavities and how with some simple steps, they can be easily prevented. Awareness about the problem, you will agree, is the first step towards preventing its occurrence.

The coverage in the media above also talked about how Medicare patients are not receiving the dental care they require on time, making it clear that health policies in this area have to be reviewed to make sure that there is better understanding of the problem.

So what causes tooth decay and how can it be prevented?

This is caused due to the accumulation of bacteria in the oral cavity. These bacteria, if allowed to prosper, will produce acids that eat away at the tooth structure and cause cavities as well as other problems. It can only be prevented by correct brushing techniques and flossing at least twice a day, along with following a healthy diet.

Now this is where young mothers like you can step in and cultivate this habit of dental care in your kids. It is a challenge no doubt to make them properly brush even once a day, but if you can make the entire process a fun-filled one, you will be able to impress upon your kids the merits of brushing and flossing regularly.

Other steps you can take to maintain oral health of your kids

• Visit the dentist at least once every year in order to identify any dental disease risk and to take suitable action. • Start these visits from when your baby is a year old so that any early signs are detected. • Drink only fluorinated water whenever possible • Cut down consumption of sugary snacks and soft drinks, particularly before going to bed. Consuming them will give bacteria a greater opportunity to attack your teeth when you are asleep and the acids produced can wreak havoc, especially if you have forgotten to brush or floss.

The important lesson in all this to take away is as parents, we should be setting the right example for our kids. When they see us doing everything we preach, they will automatically follow. In conjunction with other public awareness dental programs, oral health can certainly be safeguarded.
