You probably already have your kids’ wish lists for Santa. Wondering what else you can give them? We can help! And because we’re pediatric dentists and orthodontists, you can bet our suggestions are on the mouth health side of things!
A Dentist/Medical Kit
For your curious little one who loves imitating the dentist when at home. Or this could be your introduction of dentists if you haven’t done your first visit yet.
Another dentist kit, but with fun clay!
With this one, playing dentist goes up another notch using clay to add cavities to the monkey’s teeth, removing the cavities and adding fillings!
A Waterpik
This is cool enough to make even your reluctant flosser turn flossing into a habit!
A cute 2-minute sand timer
There are apps for dental habits, of course, but if you happen to have a gadgets-off at bedtime rule in the house, this old-school timer can help make brushing fun and engaging. They come in four colors so every member of the family can have one!
A tooth book
There are plenty of early childhood books teach kids about dental health. If your kids tend to get reading bugs where they read one book about cats and want all the cat books out there, then you want to be ready with more than one teeth and dentist book. Take your pick, or get them all for your nieces and nephews too.
A toothbrush upgrade and dental accessories
Aside from being cool and effective in getting rid of plaque, electric toothbrushes are cool and can help kids with braces.
Speaking of braces, if your recipient has graduated to retainers, there are plenty of cute and awesome retainer cases to match their style or colors they love!
