Infants should see a dentist by age one-year old for an oral screening to be sure there are no problems. Good oral health depends on parents knowing how to take care of their young children’s teeth. A baby never should be put to bed with a bottle. If an infant has already developed this habit, then put only plain water in the bottle and end the habit quickly. Sippy cups should be used only at meal times and not carried around. When teeth are constantly bathed in liquids that contain sugar in them (juice, milk etc.), then tooth decay can develop quickly.
