Tooth decay is the most common chronic childhood disease. Tooth decay in children is five times more common than asthma, four times more common than early childhood obesity, and 20 times more common than diabetes (American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, 2015). Many parents do not know that oral care should already start before the first tooth and are also not aware of the negative impact of decayed first teeth on the second teeth. Studies have shown that while the proportion of cavities-free older children is getting smaller, early childhood cavities is still a big problem. Babies often refuse to have their teeth brushed, especially if an oral care routine is not established at an early age.
The MAM oral care line was developed with the help of more than two dozen professionals across the globe and includes the MAM Oral Care Rabbit, MAM Massaging Brush, MAM Training Brush, MAM Baby’s Brush, and MAM Learn to Brush Set.
Brushy the Bear character and toothbrushing stories are available in several formats including on the free MAM toothbrushing app “MAM Brushy Time!”. Brushy, a young bear that lives in a bear’s den with his mother already has some of his baby teeth and he loves to brush them. His favorite item is his toothbrush which he carries around all day (and of course it is the new MAM toothbrush!). Brushy is a role model for young children and shows that brushing your teeth is fun.
Designed to maintain baby’s oral hygiene before teeth arrive, the MAM Oral Care Rabbit gently removes plaque and bacteria from baby’s mouth. Parents’ fingers tuck into the rabbit’s super soft “ears” like a glove, allowing him or her to gently massage and clean baby’s gums. Regular use of the MAM Oral Care Rabbit also helps prepare baby for a daily tooth brushing routine at an early age. Available in pink or blue.
The new MAM Massaging Brush cleans and massages sensitive gums and first teeth. The brush features an ergonomic shape and an anti-slip handle that is easy for little hands to hold. Soft bristles are featured on the front of the brush and different massaging structures on the sides and back of the brush head. The massaging structures help to ease discomfort during teething. The brush lies stable on its back when applying toothpaste or teething gel. Available in blue, pink or green.
Perfect for brushing together from the first tooth. The new MAM Training Brush features an extra-long and ergonomic, anti-slip handle for holding the toothbrush together. A very small rounded brush head reaches even the smallest teeth. The brush features extra soft bristles for easy cleaning. Red bristles indicate the recommended amount of toothpaste to be used. The brush lies stable on its back when applying toothpaste. Available in blue, pink or green.
Ideal for the first trials of brushing like a grown-up. The new MAM Baby’s Brush features a compact, ergonomic anti-slip handle for baby’s small hands and rounded oval brush head with extra soft bristles to clean teeth efficiently and gently. Red bristles indicate the correct amount of toothpaste to be used. The brush lies stable on its back when applying toothpaste. Available in blue, pink or green.
The new MAM Learn to Brush Set includes two brushes: a MAM Training Brush ideal to practice brushing with parents and a MAM Baby’s Brush for babies to try brushing independently. Available in blue, pink or green.
Each MAM brush comes complete with an easy to clip on safety shield. The safety shield keeps babies safe by keeping the brush from reaching too far into baby’s mouth.
You can find the MAM Baby’s Brush 2 pack and Learn to Brush Set now at Target stores and the line will also be available at Amazon. Visit mambaby.com for more info on the line.
