Dental tips for young parents

ADAVB members provided oral health tips to parents and parents-to-be at the recent Melbourne Baby and Toddler Show.

At the ‘Ask a dental professional’ booth, members of the Branch’s Oral Health Committee, such as Dr Diluni Gunawardana (pictured),
answered many queries. Questions ranged from when oral care for babies should start to introducing a child to a dentist in a surgery.

For ADAVB, this was a great opportunity to provide information to parents about caring for childrens’ teeth, as it could help start life-long beneficial habits.
