Baby Bottles and Your Child’s Teeth

  • Avoid letting your child sleep or nap with a bottle, especially if it contains milk, formula, or juice — this can cause early childhood cavities.

  • Offer only water in a bottle between meals or at bedtime.

  • Encourage your child to drink from a cup by 12 months of age.

  • Clean your baby’s gums with a soft cloth or infant toothbrush after feedings.

  • If you notice white or brown spots on teeth, let BalloonDoc 🎈🦷 know — these may be early signs of tooth decay.
