Answer to Question 1

To reduce early childhood dental carries, high-frequency consumption of liquids and solid foods containing sugar should be avoided. In particular, sugar-containing beverages such as juice, soft drinks, sweetened tea, and milk with sugar added from a baby bottle or training cup should be avoided. Infants should not be put to sleep with a bottle filled with milk or liquids containing sugars. Very frequent breastfeeding should be avoided after the first primary tooth begins to erupt and other dietary carbohydrates are introduced. Infants should be weaned from the bottle between 12 and 18 months of age. Infants should be seen by a dentist by 12 months of age. Parents should brush or wipe emerging baby teeth to promote good oral hygiene.
