Hi
I'm new here, but I thought I would start a new topic after seeing an article recently about Children's dental health. Apparently teachers should be teaching children how to brush their teeth rather than parents. Would it not be better for dentists to teach parents on how to teach children? If at dental checkups dentists can take 5 minutes to explain it would be much better.
Alternatively do any parents use iPhone apps or gadgets to help their children? Is a 2 minute sand timer enough to actually get a child to brush their teeth PROPERLY or do they need something more interactive to engage with?
Would love to get some people's thoughts on this!
Thanks
