[quote=flu][quote=sdduuuude]I have to admit – my first thought was “Why wait until the dental visit ?”[/quote]
Lol….
Actually, I’m trying to figure out if bad teeth for kids is a pure hygiene issue or is it more genetic.

That’s funny sdduuuude!
flu – I know with my son, it’s not hygiene alone. He had 2 molars erupt (first come out of the gums) already with cavities. And despite being 8 – I insist on brushing his teeth after he does – because he’s had such crappy teeth.
Some of his baby teeth were exceptionally soft according to the dentist. He suspected that I had a fever when those baby teeth were forming (pre-birth.) It wasn’t a brushing thing.
My husband also has crappy teeth.
My younger son has perfect teeth. No cavities, no signs of cavities in his future. I was the same way when I was young. (I didn’t get cavities till I started clenching my teeth due to stress, as an adult.)
