15. F.V.
Doses
Duraphat® will be prescribed for each individual child by a dentist. The correct dose for children with deciduous teeth (i.e. under 6 years old) is 0.25ml of Duraphat®. For children over 6 the recommended dose is 0.4ml.

Ensure meds are sugar free

Brush at least twice daily, last thing at night and at least one other occasion, with a fluoridated toothpaste (DBOH)
As the child is at high risk recommend use of fluoridated toothpaste containing 1, ppm fluoride (DBOH)

41. Those children aged 8 years upwards with active caries the dentist should prescribe Fluoride mouthrinse daily (0.05%NaF) for use during an different time to brushing (DBOH)
For those aged 10 years plus with active caries the dentist should prescribe 2800ppm Fluoride toothpaste (DBOH)
It is good practice to use only a pea sized amount of toothpaste (DBOH

42. Encourage your child to spit out after brushing and do not rinse, to maintain fluoride concentration levels (DBOH) (try to avoid swallowing)
Use a small headed toothbrush (DBOH)
Systematically clean all tooth surfaces – demonstrate on model, no method has been shown to be more effective than another one (DBOH)
Disclosing tablets can be used to help identify areas that have been missed (DBOH)
Don’t allow children to lick or eat toothpaste from the tube (keep out of reach) (DBOH)

Number of intakes of food per day
