• Offer only water or low-fat milk to your child, instead of soda or juice.
• Skip meals and snacks that pack a lot of added sugar.
• Allow only sugarless gum.
• Teach your child which foods can harm or help dental health.
• Practice proper dental hygiene among all members of the household.
• Ensure that your child receives proper dental care, starting at a very early age.
