In this week’s episode of Katie’s Crib, pediatric dentists Dr. Jill and Michael Lasky shed light on the importance of teaching kids all about oral hygiene.


 


The doctors highlight what age children should be visiting the dentist, and the significant role parents play in setting a good example for their children's dental habits. The two also offer insight on other dental care topics, like how to communicate with children about dental appointments, and healthy snack options that prevent cavities (especially for children who don’t like fruits and veggies).
