Toddlers Vs. Oral Health - Dentist or Be Damned

Kids love to put random 4-week old chicken nuggets in their mouths, right? So taking care of our kid's teeth should be easy, right? Right?!    Well, that's not always the case, sadly. Oral health for our little ones is crucial to having a healthy mouth and teeth well into adulthood. Having the routine and making it something that kids want to do seems like a wish?    The American Dental Association (ADA) states to have your child visit the dentist six months after their first tooth, but no later than their first birthday. As dads, are we making sure we're doing the things right to keep that smile healthy? Are we missing something when it comes to good oral health? Are we just losing our minds when nightly brushing becomes another Wrestlemania match? We answer (most) of these and more today.    CDC KID'S ORAL HEALTH GUIDELINES: https://www.cdc.gov/oralhealth/basics/childrens-oral-health/index.html   ADA Publications: https://www.ada.org/~/media/ADA/Publications/Files/ADA_PatientSmart_First_Dental_Visit.pdf http://www.ada.org/en/~/media/MouthHealthy/Files/Alliance%20Prenatal%20Materials/Handout_English#:~:text=The%20ADA%20recommends%20that%20the,until%20there's%20a%20dental%20emergency   The Fearless Fathers Dropped A course!  That's right, we teamed up with the awesome people over at listenable.io and released our FIRST COURSE!
