Taking care of my teeth!

Your child’s chance of getting cavities can be higher if:

• Family members (older brothers, sisters, or parents) have cavities.
• They eat and drink a lot of sugary foods and drinks, like soda, especially between meals.
• They have special health care needs.
• They wear braces or orthodontics or oral appliances.

If any of these apply to your child, be sure to talk with your dentist, pediatrician, or family doctor to make sure you are taking extra steps to protect your child’s teeth.
