DENTAL FACTS FOR KIDS – X-GEL

Deciduous (baby) teeth start appearing in the mouth at about 6 months of age. 20 Primary teeth will erupt and all need to be properly cleaned from the beginning. To facilitate future cleaning and to get your baby used to cleaning before the teeth erupt, gently rubbing on the gum pads for a couple of seconds with X-gel applied to your finger, will save you future squirming and wriggling!

X-gel is a wonderful product which contains Xylitol and no fluoride. Not only does the gel taste delicious, but it helps to lower the amount of caries causing bacteria as they can’t digest the Xylitol sugar. This results in a healthier mouth for your child.

It is available from your dentist and some heath shops.
