We have just come back from the dentist and I thought I might share what we learned at this first visit (Adam, 2 1/2, refused to open his mouth at all!). The dentist said to avoid raisins as snacks and that they are a very big contributor to early tooth decay and this was a real surprise to me. And to stick to savoury snacks or fruit (no dried fruit), keeping any juice or biscuits to meal times only. We have managed to stick to it for one day so far...
