Hi all,

Had to comment on this string...

As a child, I was rigorous about my dental hygine.  Result?  A mouth full of
cavities anyways!  My sister would go for days without brushing.  (GAG!)  Her
result?  One cavity in 15 years!  She has stains on her teeth where her
braces were, I do not!  Dental hygine is VERY important to me.  My older son
and I fight all the time about his tooth brushing.  He has no caries, but
does have calculus on the back of his lower front teeth.  I show him my
teeth, but it makes no difference to him!  I started his dental care before
his teeth even came in.  Wiping his gums with a small wet washcloth before
his bedtime nursing.  I do the same now with my 15 month old.  If
