AnswerBank Answer:
How do you care for baby teeth in three to six year olds?
Teeth should be brushed two times a day — and especially before going to bed. Younger children should use a soft-bristled toothbrush and a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste. Children should be encouraged to spit the toothpaste out once the brushing is done. Adults should floss a child's teeth once a day.
