[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I started flossing my kids' teeth as soon as I could, to incorporate it into their dental hygiene routine without it being a fuss later on. I myself (43 yo) didn't regularly floss until I was in my 20s. Now at 9 and 11, it's just an accepted part of brushing. As I tell them, only floss the teeth you want to keep! Really, I'm failing parenting in so many ways so this is my little victory.[/quote] + 1. I did the same because DH and I did not get dental care and treatments until we were in our 30s. I also taught them how to use tongue cleaners and to rinse their mouth after each meal, since this was taught to us at home. I introduced oil pulling and neti pots when they were tweens as a way to prevent colds and coughs and they usually will do so when they feel they are coming down with one. [/quote]
