As a parent to today’s generation, you’re likely conscious about the amount of screen-time your kids get—probably wishing it were less. Capitalize on the app frenzy and get your kids to take better care of their smile!
Below are some of our favorite FREE tooth brushing apps for kids that can improve your child’s brushing and flossing habits.
Our Top Five Favorite Tooth Brushing Apps for Kids
- Brush DJ (Android, iOS) – This award-winning app makes brushing teeth fun. The app allows you to choose the music you want to play for the recommended two-minute brush time, so you and your kids know exactly when to stop brushing. Added features include videos on how to properly floss your teeth, and reminders for your next dentist visit.
- Brush Up (Android, iOS) – This app uses your phone’s camera as a “virtual mirror” so kids can watch themselves and a video teaching them how to brush simultaneously, while they are brushing. When your kids are done, the video is captured of their brushing and they can earn rewards for proper brushing technique.
- Toothsavers (iOS) – With a fairytale storyline, this app gives kids the incentive to save the game’s kingdom by removing a cavity-casting spell. This app is helpful for children who have a difficult time brushing their teeth for the full two minutes.
- Brusheez Little Monsters (iOS) – Kids start the app by playing with the Little Monsters before brushing begins. The Little Monster characters will then guide your kids through brushing their teeth with music and a two-minute timer.
- Brush Teeth with The Wiggles (Android, iOS) – This app is great for the youngest of brushers. It features a video of the Wiggles characters and other kids brushing to keep kids motivated to their own brushing. It also features a timer, and the ability to add more kids so that each child can earn their own rewards.
