Children in Leeds are not the easiest people to look after and can be very high maintenance, but if you are intent on having them, then you must be prepared to look after them and care for them, especially their health, and somewhere in this equation, you will have to care for their teeth too. Now as you should know, seeing as you have been through it yourself, this is a very difficult era in a child’s life and their teeth go through many changes, but if you have some good dental insurance to cover the costs, a paediatrician in the early years and a good family dentist to get them through to adulthood, you shouldn’t have any problems. From the moment they start teething, get their second teeth, maybe have to wear a brace and even, if you haven’t kicked them out by then, watch as their wisdom teeth come through, you are going to have to be alert to their dental needs. You have to teach them how to brush their teeth properly, try to keep them off the sweets as much as you can and give them a healthy and balanced diet in order that you make their teeth strong and healthy. All of these things will help limit the amount of tooth decay a child will suffer from in the early years and though they may never thank you later on, your commitment will help you to sleep easy in the knowledge that you did your best.
