Answer to Question 1

C
Children should first see the dentist 6 months after the first primary tooth erupts and no later than age 30 months. Toddlers need fluoride supplements when they use a water supply that is not fluorinated. Toddlers need supervision with dental care. The parent should finish brushing areas not reached by the child. A small nylon bristle brush works best for cleaning toddlers' teeth.

Answer to Question 2

B
Consistent and immediate discipline for toddlers is the most effective approach. Unless disciplined immediately, the toddler will have difficulty connecting the discipline with the behavior. The toddler's cognitive level of development precludes the use of explanations and morals as a part of discipline. Discipline for the toddler should be immediate; therefore, the family member caring for the child should provide discipline to the toddler when it is necessary. Discipline is required for unacceptable behavior, and the one-spanking-a-day rule contradicts the concept of a consistent response to inappropriate behavior. Additionally, spanking is an inappropriate method of disciplining a child.
