how we learn it

I know exactly how you feel
I was shocked when the dentist said my 6 yr old needed a filling
He only gets lollies at bday parties etc
we eat quite well and i was surprised to hear the grapes thing also
and the muesli bars is the cause also!

i too recently took my 5 year old to the dentist which resulted in a filling i was devastated having bed teeth myself one thing ive always done is care for my children’s teeth, he had food that had been stuck between his teeth that caused it to decay we now floss his teeth. I know how you feel i felt so horrible like a bad mother!

My nephew too had to get a filling at a young age due to eating so much fruit!

Don’t feel bad, I was four when I had my first tooth extracted! I hated lollies and chocolates and would spit them out and sweet stuff never interested me and now my Dentist tells me I have lovely teeth (for a person of my age – lol).

Many fruits have more sugar in them than lollies just get in the habit of a quick brush even after a snack but I also put all my kids floride tablets to give them a boost
