FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How can oral hygiene education help me care for my child’s teeth?
Oral hygiene education is key to keeping your child’s teeth healthy. At DENTL, our team will show you practical techniques to make brushing and flossing easier, even for the youngest ones. We’ll also help you choose the right toothbrush and when to introduce fluoride toothpaste.
