NATIONAL CHILDREN’S DENTAL HEALTH MONTH HIGHLIGHTS IMPORTANCE OF EARLY ORAL CARE HABITS

AMERICAN FORK, UT, UNITED STATES, February 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, an annual observance aimed at raising awareness about the importance of establishing healthy oral care habits early in life. Dental professionals continue to emphasize that consistent daily routines during childhood play a critical role in long-term oral health.
For many families, encouraging regular brushing and flossing can be challenging, particularly with younger children. Pediatric dental experts note that simple, age-appropriate routines and gentle products can help make daily oral care more manageable while supporting healthy teeth and gums as children grow.

Xylitol, a naturally occurring ingredient found in fruits and vegetables, has been widely studied for its role in oral health. Research indicates that xylitol may help reduce levels of cavity-causing bacteria in the mouth, making it a commonly used ingredient in a range of dental care products intended for both children and adults.

“As children develop, consistency and comfort are key factors in forming habits that last,” said Nate Jones, CEO of Xlear, Inc. “Products designed with children in mind can help support those routines while giving parents confidence in the ingredients being used.”

Spry® Kids oral care products are among the xylitol-based options available to families seeking fluoride-free alternatives for daily brushing. These products are formulated for children and are available in flavors intended to encourage regular use as part of a broader oral hygiene routine.

In addition to brushing, dental professionals often highlight the importance of saliva production in maintaining oral cleanliness. Chewing xylitol-containing gum after meals, when brushing may not be possible, has been shown to stimulate saliva flow, which helps rinse away food particles and supports overall oral health.

Experts stress that no single product replaces proper brushing techniques, regular dental checkups, or a balanced diet. However, incorporating evidence-based ingredients such as xylitol into daily routines may offer additional support as children build lifelong oral care habits.
