This is the way we brush our teeth.....

Some months ago, Caleb's teeth were found to have black stains on them (like that of a smoker's) and he was brought to the dentist at KKH. Dentist said it is nothing to be worried about, just some oral bacteria reaction which discolorize the teeth. Caleb's teeth was polished and mummy was surprised the 2 1/2yr old was not afraid! He was lying on mummy on the dentist chair and seemed to enjoy the cleansing and polishing.

Dentist suggested for Caleb to use toothpaste with slight floride but said discolorization may come back. This problem will go away as the child grows.

Since then, Daddy has been wanting to get Caleb a POWERFUL toothbrush, although that may or may not help with his teeth condition and finally, toothbrush is here!!

But mummy will still get the boy to learn how to brush teeth with a normal 'manual' toothbrush.
