This will be a way to show them your interest in their current tastes.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Escoge_sabores_aprobados_por_el\"><\/span><strong>Choose flavors approved by him<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There are many flavors on the market these days, but almost all of them are strong. Make sure you buy a flavor your teen will actually enjoy; they&#039;ll probably prefer something a little milder. Even choosing a toothpaste can motivate them to make daily oral hygiene a habit.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Utiliza_aplicaciones\"><\/span><strong>Use apps<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As a typical teenager, he&#039;s almost certain to like technology and know (more than you do) about the latest apps. Go ahead and ask him about an app that reminds you to brush your teeth or something simpler like a timer app.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is for this technology to become part of their routine. They should dedicate three minutes to brushing their teeth, and the simplest way to time it is with a watch or stopwatch. Choose a fun timer together, and it will motivate them more each day.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limita_las_bebidas_gaseosas_y_las_meriendas_llenas_de_azucar\"><\/span><strong>Limit sugary drinks and snacks.<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It seems that, during adolescence, the consumption of sugary drinks, fried foods, and refined sugars increases. The best thing you can do is encourage them to eat healthier and avoid these drinks.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to do this is by making snacks with sugar-free or very low-sugar foods. There are more and more delicious recipes with minimal sugar. Get creative and unleash your inner chef! And prepare healthier food at home.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enfocate_en_darle_confianza\"><\/span><strong>Focus on giving him confidence<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One reality for teenagers is that they sometimes lose confidence in themselves. Their physical appearance begins to change, and they feel nervous amidst all these changes. Teach them that with good oral hygiene they&#039;ll have fresh breath, whiter teeth, and a lower risk of disease. Their improved appearance will likely motivate them to adopt consistent oral hygiene habits.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Oral health in adolescents is very important<\/strong>. Studies of <em>Centers for Disease Control and Prevention<\/em>, They stated that more than 151% of children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 19 have untreated cavities.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any concerns about your child&#039;s oral health <a href=\"https:\/\/asistenciadentalplus.com\/en\/pide-cita-dentista-valencia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Request a free initial consultation with us!<\/strong> <\/a>We would be delighted to have you in our <a href=\"https:\/\/asistenciadentalplus.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Clinic Asistencia Dental Plus<\/strong><\/a> book an appointment <a href=\"https:\/\/asistenciadentalplus.com\/en\/pide-cita-dentista-valencia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>HERE<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Remember that we have specialists in the <a href=\"https:\/\/asistenciadentalplus.com\/en\/servicios\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pediatric Dentistry<\/a> These are dentists who specialize in children and adolescents. <a href=\"https:\/\/asistenciadentalplus.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>We&#039;re waiting for you!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Los cuidados orales son importantes a cualquier edad.
