[quote=Anonymous]I started flossing my kid's teeth before he even had enough to floss, just to start him getting used to it. He flosses nightly and as needed (e.g., after eating an ear of corn). He also uses an Oral B electric toothbrush with replaceable heads and received instruction from the dentist on how to use it (hold on each tooth surface for a count of 3 and then brush all molar surfaces after fully doing fronts & backs; don't glide along the teeth). He's 12 and doing great. I had horrid oral hygiene as a kid and have suffered for it (pain + finances) into adulthood, so it is a priority for our family.[/quote]
