Dental hygiene should be started early.Even before a child has teeth,the gums can be wiped with a damp cloth or gauze.Toothpaste cannot be used before age 2 (because of the risks associated with swallowing it).A dentist should examine a baby's teeth within 6 months of the eruption of the first tooth,but no later than the first birthday.Children should have all 20 primary teeth by the third birthday.
