To help avoid early childhood tooth decay, the dental experts recommend that parents wipe their infants gums with a damp cloth after each feeding, and warn against letting babies fall asleep while sucking on bottles containing milk, juices or other sweet liquids.COMMENT: This study brings up several great points.
