Today with David McCullagh · Flossing, fluoride and fissure sealants – how best to look after your child's teeth · 4 Aug 2026 podcast

We do it eventually, but I'm just wondering how long we should actually be brushing those teeth for. voice-verified

I don't want to be going through all of this effort and convincing him to do it and not actually be doing enough of it or doing it for long enough. voice-verified

But the gold standard, the thing to be aiming and working towards, is still two minutes, is it? voice-verified

Could you ask Abigail about using mouth rinse? voice-verified

We have two separate appointments where we've been given conflicting advice. voice-verified

Should it be used or not? voice-verified

And also how often? voice-verified

Well, I'll get on to the other question in a second, but mouth rinse, yes or no? voice-verified

If mouthwashes don't have as much fluoride as toothpaste, what are they designed to do? voice-verified

Are they there to do a different job? voice-verified

OK, so it really is all just about the freshness that you feel in your mouth. voice-verified

OK, the second part of their question then was how often should children have a dental clean? voice-verified

They don't drink and smoke, or at least you hope they don't. voice-verified

They don't go for the stimulants like tea and coffee. voice-verified

But they are doing the sugary drinks, even the quote unquote healthy ones like the orange juices and the apple juices. voice-verified

I know paediatric dentists don't have much enthusiasm for orange and apple juice, do you? voice-verified

It's interesting there, though, that you're saying you're really equating a checkup with a dental clean. voice-verified

It amounts to the same thing. voice-verified

They don't have to go in there for a polish and a scrape, do they? voice-verified

Abigail, thank you very much for joining us. voice-verified
