Baby-bottle decay affects a child's upper front teeth. It happens when milk or juice stays on the teeth for long periods, especially at bedtime.
Habits that protect your child
- Don't let your child fall asleep with a bottle.
- Wipe your baby's gums with a clean cloth after feeds.
- Start brushing with the first tooth.
- Cut down juice and sweets between meals.
- First dental visit with the first tooth or before age one.
