This month is National Children’s Dental Health Month! Children’s dental health is so important. I have four children, and so I know what a struggle it can be to get them to brush and floss, and to take care of their teeth the correct way, but it is so worth it. I want to share some great Oral Health Care Tips for Children from Trident and the The Partnership for Healthy Mouths.
Have your children brush their teeth TWO TIMES A DAY for at least 2 MINUTES. (2 MIN 2X). If you have toddlers, then you may or may not know that you can use flouride toothpaste if they are 2 or older.
From the age of 1, you and your children should visit the Dentist regularly.
Make sure that your kids are flossing. They need to clean between their teeth at least once a day to remove plaque and food where a brush can’t reach. Children as young as 2 should be flossing if their teeth are touching.
Make sure their teeth are getting Flouride. This will come through most water and some food sources, and also in their toothpaste.
Chewing Sugar-Free gum like Trident can help keep their teeth cleaner after eating and between brushing. chewing Trident sugar-free gum after eating stimulates saliva flow, which helps reduce the risk of cavities by reducing plaque acids, removing debris and strengthening teeth.
You can learn more about oral health tips and Smiles Across America here. Learn more about Trident on the Trident Facebook page.
Did you know that the first National sugar-free gum in the US was Trident Gum? It continues to be the leading sugar-free gum, offering benefits to consumers who are concerned about their oral care, and has been for the last 50 years. This year Trident gum is celebrating their 10-year parternership with Oral Health America’s Smiles Across America Program (SAA). This program jas provided oral disease prevention services for more than 2,000,000 children who are underserved due to poverty, and donated more than $2.5 million to support the program.
We want to help you get (or stay) in the habbit of using sugar-free gum in addition to the great tips above for healtier teeth, so we are giving away 12 packages of Trident Gum!

Dental care is really important particularity to children and thanks for sharing.
I learned that tooth decay is the most common chronic childhood disease in America, affecting 50 percent of first graders and 80 percent of 17-year-olds.
I didn’t realize that chewing sugar free gum stimulates saliva flow, reduces plaque and helps remove debris. I also didn’t realize that ids need to brush for 2 full minutes.
I really didn’t know that Trident was the first, but it was always my favorite sugarless.
I learned that over 51 million school hours are lost each year due to dental-related problems.
I learned that you can use fluoride toothpaste when age 2 and up and that children should floss if teeth touch and that should brush 2 times a day for two minutes each(sing the happy birthday song)
