Picking toothpaste, brush
A trip to your local drug store or
supermarket will give you some
idea just how many dental aids and
oral health care products are avail
able. With so many items for sale
and with consumers becoming
more and more health-and-beauty
conscious, dentists are often asked
their opinions on what is
worthwhile. While I do not like to
endorse particular brands, I will
offer a few consumer tips on home
health care products.
Toothpaste. "Doctor, which
toothpaste do you recommend?"
"Any toothpaste with the ADA seal
on the container." If the ADA ap
proves of it you can bet it has the
right concentration of fluoride and
is safe. I do not recommend the
popular tartar-control products,
however. I have noticed an increase
in the number of people who visit
my office complaining of sensitive
Mother’s milk best for baby
To breast-feed or not to breast
feed: it's a decision for each mother
to make. Breast-feeding is the natu
ral way to feed your baby as well as
the most nutritious, convenient and
economical.
Breast milk is baby's perfect
food, containing all the nutrients a
baby needs for growth during the
first months of life. In addition to
this nourishment, breast milk also
offers a degree of immunity against
infection, and helps develop baby's
digestive system.
A mother who breast feeds must
maintain a proper diet to produce
enough milk and stay healthy. This
means that she will need more calo
ries (500-800) daily than she needed
during pregnancy. She also needs
extra amounts of some vitamins
and minerals. A nursing mother
must also increase her intake of liq
uids such as water and fruit juices.
Another advantage of breast-feeding
is the feeling of closeness between
mother and baby. This feeling of
warmth and closeness is comforting
for the baby and fulfilling for the
mother.
Os course, there are disadvantages
to breast-feeding.oSome.mothers
find it uncomfortable, especially at
first. But, this is usd|jly short-lived
and can be minimized. Breasts
should be kept clean and dry to
prevent cracking, and positions
during breast-feeding may be
changed to prevent soreness.
Research has shown that babies
who are breast-fed have fewer health
problems. This includes less diar
rhea, less vomiting, fewer ear infec

teeth after they have begun using
tartar-control. There is also some
speculation that the tartar-control
formula competes with fluoride for
a place on the tooth and therefore is
not appropriate for children or other
cavity-prone persons. My opinion:
the best tartar-control is the daily
removal of plaque by effective
brushing combined with periodic
professional cleanings.
Toothbrushes. "Doctor, what
toothbrush do you recommend?"
"Any SOFT toothbrush that is
comfortable for you to use." I also

recommend a small brush such as a
junior size. Personally, I like the
angled handle on Colgate and Reach
brushes but this feature is not nec
essary. As a matter of fact, the only
toothbrush that is not good is a
hard or medium-bristled brush.
Microscopic studies show that soft
toothbrushes remove plaque very
effectively and are not as traumatic
to the gums. Also be sure to
replace toothbrushes before they
start to wear out and after you
recover from a cold or virus.
A note for parents: When trying
to encourage small children to
brush, buy a very soft, very small
brush. Highly recommended are the
toothbrushes with Disney or other
cartoon characters. Children love
them and are more willing to
brush. Os course, all children under
age seven must be supervised by an
adult to ensure complete plaque
removal.
tions, fewer allergies and respiratory
illnesses such as bronchitis or
pneumonia. Breast-fed babies even
have fewer colds.
Breast-feeding is a natural,
healthy way to begin an infant's
life. If you would like more infor
mation on breast-feeding, please
call your local health department.
