Abstract

Oral hygiene is important in childhood and adolescence. For this reason, the need for training and the use of proper toothpaste for children is essential for parents. This article is about how to use toothpaste for children of different ages. The components of toothpaste for children are adjusted to their age. The goal is to use them to keep both children’s teeth clean and remain healthy and have no special side effects for the child. Also, the packaging and flavor of children's toothpaste are generally attractive to them. Prior to this, there was a particular standard for a child's toothpaste, for example, it was suggested that children's toothpaste should contain less fluoride, but today, except for a few countries that are more sensitive to this, recommendations for the production of toothpaste with less fluoride is not required. In 2012, the participants in the American Dental Association Council meeting recommended the use of fluoride toothpastes.
