Commonly Asked Questions Of Dr. Reaves About Your Children's Dental Care...

 |
"Dr. Reaves, how
can I prevent tooth decay from nursing or a bottle?"
|
| |
Taking your baby off of the breast
when he/she falls asleep can prevent baby tooth decay. Hold your baby
while bottle feeding. Always take a bottle filled with milk or juice
away from the sleeping child.
If your child requires a bottle at bedtime provide a bottle filled with
water. Instead of a bottle, try comforting your child with a pacifier or
a favorite toy or blanket.
Check with your health care provider to make sure your child is getting
the right amount of fluoride. Brush your baby's teeth with a soft
toothbrush daily.

*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and during dental
procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an effort to reduce fear and anxiety, while still maintaining normal breathing and the
ability to respond appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
