A Fun, New Toothbrush

• Everyone loves a new toothbrush, and the right
  one can be just as exciting as a new toy for your
  child. The American Dental Association (ADA)
  recommends changing your toothbrush every three
  to four months. Why not start the new year off on
  the right foot with a brand-new toothbrush?
• For younger children, pick a brush that features
  one of their favorite cartoon characters. Choose
  a toothbrush that has a smaller head and soft
  bristles since younger children have sensitive
  gums. Also, make sure to pick a brush that has an
  easy-to-hold handle for their smaller hands.
• Older children will be excited to get an electric
  toothbrush in their favorite color, it makes
  brushing easier and more effective. Since
  electric toothbrushes are usually automatically
  timed, theyre a simple way to ensure that your
  child is brushing for a full two minutes.

• Sugar-Free, Cavity-Fighting Xylitol Gum or
  Lollipops
• Kids love sweet surprises, and you can feel good
  about giving them these sweets that are good for
  them. Chewing sugar-free Xylitol gum can help
  produce saliva, which washes away trapped food
  particles from your teeth. Gum containing xylitol
  has been proven to help reduce cavities, making
  it a must-have stocking stuffer for the entire
  family.
• Tooth Fairy Pillow
• Tooth pillows are fantastic dental stocking
  stuffers for small children who are still losing
  their baby teeth. A happy, cuddly tooth that can
  accompany them to bed will make them eager to
  await the Tooth Fairys visit.
• Flavored Toothpaste and Dental Floss
• Fun flavored toothpaste and floss are sure to
  bring a smile to anyones face. And there are
  some interesting flavors to try. You can choose
  toothpaste flavors such as watermelon, citrus,
  cinnamon, ginger, strawberry, and more. Floss is
  available in cinnamon, coconut, strawberry,
  grape, bubble gum, orange and even cupcake.

• Sports Mouthguard
• Does your child play sport? If so, consider
  giving them a mouthguard to protect those pearly
  whites. Even if they already have one, a new
  color or style can get kids excited about staying
  in the habit of wearing it.
• Dental Hygiene Kit

  with all kinds of goodies including
• A compact mirror to check for left-behind foodA
  pop-up folding cup for rinsingA mini-toothbrush

• Tooth-Friendly Treats
• You dont need to skip the goodies to keep your
  childs teeth healthy. Instead, swap the sweet
  treats for healthy ones. Small fruits like
  clementines, nuts and dried fruit, granola bars,
  popcorn are great stocking stuffers. Heres a
  little history about why clementines were once
  popular to put in stockings.
• Books
• Reading is wonderful for your childs
  development. Why not also use this opportunity to
  give them a fun book encouraging good oral
  hygiene habits? Find picture books about brushing
  and flossing, the tooth fairy, or visits to the
  dentist. Small dental care books like Dr. Seusss
  The Tooth Book or The Tooth Book A Guide to
  Healthy Teeth and Gums by Edward Miller are
  great for small children. These books make
  learning about how to care for their own teeth
  fun
