Designed to be displayed, The Tooth Bible stands out as the premium baby gift that affirms its value for years to come.

  • "As a parent of two children, ages 8 and 14, the world of pediatric dental care and orthodontics has been a “learn on and as needed basis” for many of us. This book is packed with useful, easy-to-digest information that will undoubtedly help any parent understand oral health and preventative care as their child develops. As a sleep specialist, dental health is a much misunderstood and overlooked area in sleep and breathing, and this book will be a useful tool for parents who are struggling in this arena and unsure of next steps."

Quick Bites

According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the recommended time for a child’s first dental visit is either six months after the eruption of the first tooth or at age one, whichever occurs first.

Old tricks like biting an apple or tying string around a door knob still have their place, often the quickest way to wiggle out a tooth is to take your thumb and pointer finger and rock it from side to side until it releases from the gums.

Parents should brush their zero-to 3-year-old child’s teeth using a small soft-bristled brush twice daily and a toothpaste that contains fluoride.

Typically, all baby teeth are in the mouth by age three. The complete set of baby teeth is composed of ten upper teeth and ten lower teeth.
