Infants require proper dental care. Infants usually get their first tooth by the first birthday. So, how do you protect your child from gum disease and other oral conditions?

Main points:

– Poor oral hygiene causes gum disease and triggers other serious conditions like diabetes.

– Signs of infant gum disease include redness, swelling, bleeding and lack of appetite.

– Clean your baby’s gums with a soft, damp piece of cloth.

Once the second tooth grows, start using a floss and baby toothbrush to clean their teeth. Visit the dentist for dental care.
