BRUFEN
BACK
As parents, ensure your child brushes their teeth regularly, preferably with a fluoride toothpaste. This helps prevent and control tooth decay in children.40
WHAT CAUSES TOOTH DECAY IN CHILDREN?
Many reasons contribute to tooth decay in children, but the most controllable reason is irregular brushing habits and excessive consumption of sweets. Genetics as well as certain infections too contribute to the same.
It is advised to take your child for half-yearly dental check-ups and keep an eye for any sign of decay or damage to avoid further complications.41
WHY BRUFEN FOR TOOTHACHE IN CHILDREN?
In case of toothache, taking Brufen® helps reduce the pain and discomfort until your child’s next appointment with the dentist. Aspirin is not recommended in case your child is less than 16 years of age.41
