Question: 1 / 1180

Breastfeeding should be stopped when?

After the first primary tooth erupts

Breastfeeding should be stopped after the first primary tooth erupts. This is because breastfeeding can contribute to the child's oral health by providing antibodies and nutrients that support the development of healthy teeth and gums. Continuing to breastfeed after the first tooth erupts can help to prevent early childhood caries and promote overall oral health. It is important to maintain good oral hygiene practices even when breastfeeding to ensure the child's teeth stay healthy.
