Inhaltsangabe

Dental disease in children is a global healthcare problem which can be eradicated since tooth decay is primarily a preventable disease. My hope is that parents would benefit from the advice given here to the extent that their children would live healthier, happier lives. Moreover, families can escape the financial burden brought on by the escalating cost of dental healthcare by following these dental disease prevention tips. Dental disease can be prevented and controlled when proactive measures are applied daily from conception as an integral component of universal Healthcare. The International Dental Federation (FDI) reminds us of the importance of oral health to holistic medicine in their World Oral Health Day (WOHD) - 2016 theme: “It all Starts Here: Healthy Mouth Healthy Body”. The FDI also recommends that we start early, develop good oral habits and “Live Mouth Smart”. It is my hope that this exercise will be a helpful literary resource in simplifying dental health education for parents.
