How to brush your child’s teeth?
Gums and the underlying bones are the foundation on which healthy teeth lie. In medical terms the gums and bones are referred to as a system known as the “periodontium”. Like any other system in the body, it is liable for infection, wound and subsequent weakening. Professional cleaning (known as scaling) helps keep the gums and teeth clean, when performed periodically, by a dentist. When not cared for properly, gums can become swollen, discharge pus, erode the bone and subsequently lead to loss of teeth. So it is important to take treatment when suggested by an expert.
