on Monday, August 15, 2016. Springfield, ILâ¦ A newly signed bipartisan bill, sponsored by State Representative Michael McAuliffe (R-Chicago), will assist veterans in their effort to receive help for mental health issues.
The general rule is six months after eruption of the first tooth. Taking your child to the dentist at a young age is the best way to prevent problems such as tooth decay, and can help parents learn how to clean their child's teeth and identify his or her fluoride needs.
For example: 1  Remind your child to brush his or her teeth at least twice a day. Supervise and offer assistance as needed. 2  Help your child floss his or her teeth daily. 3  Eat a healthy diet and limit between-meal snacks.  Schedule regular dental visits for your child, either with your family dentist or a pediatric dentist.
