Can Baby Bottles Lead to Tooth Decay in Infants?
Many parents are unaware that baby teeth are susceptible to cavities. This is particularly important when bottle feeding, as oral care plays a critical role. What do you need to know about baby bottle tooth decay?
– Saliva should never be shared between the parent and the child.
– Only use a small amount of toothpaste with children between three and six years of age.
– Bottles should never be filled with other liquids such as sugar water.
“Baby Bottle Tooth Decay most often occurs in the upper front teeth.”
