Did you know, in two minutes you can:
- heat a bowl of soup,
- download an app,
- put on sneakers,
- change a diaper,
- steep a cup of tea
- and improve a child’s dental health?
Brushing children’s teeth with safe and healthy fluoride toothpaste for two minutes two times a day helps prevent tooth decay, the number one chronic childhood disease, says the American Dental Association.
This holiday season, nestled among the building blocks and baby dolls, make sure there’s a two-minute toothbrushing timer to keep little ones focused on teeth health. Oral B has teamed up with Disney to produce free online timers featuring popular animated movie characters as well as super heroes. These colorful, affordable timers are available as easy-to-download free apps and videos from the website.
Remember, keep toothbrushing fun and effective. Use the right amount of children’s fluoride toothpaste: a thin smear the size of a grain of rice for babies up to age three, and a dot the size of a small pea for children ages three to six.
