What is the right kind of toothbrush for your child?



It is challenging to find the right kind of toothbrush for your child as many options are available in the market. The kid’s toothbrush comes in a wide variety of sizes, shapes according to their dental growth. But you need to choose a toothbrush that ensures effective cleaning of teeth and gums and helps in maintaining good oral health.


Some of the things which you should keep in mind while shopping for toothbrushes for your kids are as follows:


1. Comfortable Bristles

The toothbrush for kids should be comfortable to rub on teeth and gums. Otherwise, it may rash the delicate inside skin of the kid's mouth. The bristles should not be harsh on their teeth and are adjustable according to the shape of the mouth.


2. Size of toothbrush

Find the correct length of toothbrush which your child may hold correctly. It should be easy to carry, and the brush should enter smoothly in the mouth. Select a brush with soft bristles and which has a round end. It will help in avoiding any accidental injury while brushing or playing with the toothbrush.


3. Buy them in Attractive colours

There are so many ways to make your child build a habit of regular brushing of teeth. For example, you can buy a toothbrush in attractive colours or cartoons painted on it, which may excite your child to brush their teeth happily and daily. This technique helps in making tooth brushing, a fun task that your kid will enjoy, and not forget to follow the routine.


4. Slimmer Handles

You can buy toothbrushes with slimmer handles to make your child have a firm grip on them. If the child does not hold properly, he will not be able to brush his teeth properly. That’s why buy a lightweight toothbrush that your child can pick up quickly and make a way to brushing their teeth on their own.


Children above five can start independent brushing of teeth as the child grows, oral health changes and demand the right toothbrush to avoid oral health problems. The above points are for kids up to age 6-7, and for further caution, you can consult your dentist. Sometimes, children may face dental issues or any mouth injury from the wrong toothbrush. Do not get worried about that and freely visit the dentist.
