It’s very true!
You know, i read that before about the hours of school and work missed due to dental issues. I had no idea that the number was so big!

It’s amazing how big it is! I couldn’t believe it myself.
That reminds me I need to make our next appointments!

I always schedule the next ones at the appt we are at. So that I don’t forget to schedule them.
there is lot of good information on the infographic. i did not know a lot of it.
Didn’t know kids needed to go to dentist by age 2.
I asked my kids dentist when you should bring them in and he said at 1. I was asking for the baby that wasn’t meant to be. At least I was planning ahead for once lol.
I’m lucky my kids LOVE to brush their teeth. Also I love Tom’s they use the silly strawberry toothpaste.

I am always amazed when I hear people say they don’t have dental coverage. It is so sad. I think this is awesome what Tom’s is doing. Thanks for sharing.
Dental health is SO important. I’m so glad we have dental insurance that has allowed us to keep our daughter’s teeth healthy.

I didn’t realize they recommend taking your child to the dentist before 1. They hardly have any teeth by then!
Statistics here are quite shocking. I also did not know that babies should visit a dentist.
Hm. Our dentist says that 2 is a good age to start going but they won’t really do anything but get them used to it until age 3. Interesting this says age 1.

I didn’t know you should take your kid to a dentist before 2 years old.
Such an amazing company to do this for others! My children have been going to the dentist every 6 months since the were two years old
