A national poll reveals that over one-third of parents report their children experienced dental issues like tooth decay and bad breath, often linked to inconsistent oral hygiene practices. The University of Michigan Health C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital highlights that children who neglect key hygiene habits, such as brushing twice a day and flossing, are more likely to face these problems. Sarah Clark, M.P.H., from the Mott Poll, stresses the importance of a comprehensive routine to prevent dental issues and establish lifelong oral health.
