1. Breastfeeding or formula feeding: Breastfeeding is the best choice in the first six months after the baby is born. Antibodies and nutrients in breast milk contribute to the healthy development of baby's mouth. If you can't breastfeed, you can choose a formula suitable for your baby's age.
2. Avoid letting the baby eat the bottle for a long time: Eating the bottle for a long time will increase the risk of tooth decay. Try not to feed your baby bottles or just provide them with water before going to bed.
3. Healthy diet: ensure that the baby has a balanced diet after adding complementary food. Reduce the intake of sugar and carbonated drinks, because these foods and drinks can easily lead to tooth decay.
4. Clean your teeth regularly: From the moment your baby grows his first tooth, you should start cleaning their teeth regularly. You can gently brush your teeth with a baby toothbrush and appropriate fluoride-free toothpaste. Don't use fluoride toothpaste until the baby learns to gargle.
5. See the dentist regularly: It is recommended that the baby start to see the dentist regularly after one year old. Dentists can check the baby's oral health and provide professional advice and treatment.
6. Avoid using pacifiers at night: Long-term use of pacifiers may affect your baby's tooth development. Try to take off the nipple when the baby is asleep to reduce the pressure on the teeth. These are just some suggestions, and each baby's situation may be different. If you have any specific questions or concerns, it is recommended to consult your pediatrician or dentist for personalized advice and treatment.
