Baby dental care, Can a baby get gum disease

Thursday, Oct. 7th 2010 7:37 AM

My neeice is seven and she is always putting up a fuss when you tell her to brush her teeth.  She does not floss and I know my sister is not flossing her teeth for her.   My sister told me if her daughter does not brush her teeth all the time it is no big deal that they are only baby teeth right now anyway and she has not gotten any cavities.

I been keeping my mouth shut as to not get into it with her but I did state it really does not matter if she gets gum disease it will hurt her adult teeth too and be very costly to fix.  She said I did not know what I am talking about since I do not have any kids.
