Regulating the diet of children can be both challenging and rewarding. It prevents tooth decay and consequently reducing toothaches and problems in chewing. Children with no dental caries or with minimal caries will have less fear in visiting dentists. We all know that regular visit to dentists will prevent us from having dental problems. Thus, when these kids become adults they there is a better chance that they will pass on to their children the same degree of dental awareness.

It is important that calcium enrich food is included in a child’s diet (examples: Milk and cheese) Sugar may increase the acid level in the mouth. It is important that an early age children are conscious about eating less sugary food. Other diseases may also be prevented aside from dental caries. We all know that children are prone to eating too much sweet and sometimes we cannot monitor it especially when kids are not at home. One good suggestion would be to explain the consequence of eating too much sweet so they would understand and realize it on their own.
