Here are some tips on how your kids should brush their teeth and keep them healthy.
- Place the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to the gums.
- Move the brush back and forth gently in short strokes.
- Brush the outer surfaces, the inside surfaces and the chewing surfaces of all teeth.
- To clean the inside surface of the front teeth, tilt the brush vertically and make several up-and-down strokes.
- Brush your tongue to remove bacteria and keep your breath fresh.
If you need assistance scheduling please call APIPA at 888-664-2777, we can assist you in arranging that appointment.
