That’s kind of what worries me. My daughter is super independent, and she insists on brushing alone, but I’m never sure if she’s actually getting all ...
My dentist never brought up sealants for me either, just for my kids. I actually asked once because I get anxious about cavities and thought maybe it ...
That’s totally me too. I got an implant for a lower molar and it’s fine, but I always notice it when I eat chips or nuts. It’s like my brain knows it’...
I’ve got the same worry about mouthwashes. Regular ones always sting and make my mouth feel dry, so I avoid them. Tried a “gentle whitening” one (the ...

I get what you mean about making it fun, but I’m always worried they’ll get too distracted and not take it seriously later on. My kid was super anxiou...
