dental care for babies, Baby gum disease

Wednesday, Nov. 24th 2010 8:55 AM

I am friendly with our next store neighbors since we both have children around the same age.   So when she asked me to baby sit her six year old son until 10 pm I had not issues with helping her out.

My son Jack is five and brushes his own teeth. I notice that my neighbor’s son did not know how to brush his teeth,  and I had to do it for him.  I was  careful not to brush hard but his gums bled anyway .

His gums were much redder then I would think is normal.  I just wondering can a child have gum disease?    She is a signal mom so I guess things can be hard for her to stay on top of.  Where I have my husband that also helps me with my son oral care.

In fact my husband was the one that got our son brushing his teeth on his own.  Should I say anything to her or should I just keep quite about it.
