Semi-skimmed milk can be offered from the age of two, and skimmed milk from the age of 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Milk is very good for children&#8217;s teeth! It contains calcium and phosphorus, which strengthen tooth enamel and enrich it with minerals. Milk also strengthens and keeps the jawbones healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, milk also contains a natural sugar, lactose, which can damage teeth, so teeth should be brushed after drinking milk, and it is not recommended before bedtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teeth are at greatest risk at night, because less saliva is produced then to protect them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Water is the best drink before bedtime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find out which drink is best for your child&#8217;s teeth.
