Spiffies

About Spiffies:

Pediatrician Ray Wagner and his wife, Marti Wagner, President of DR Products, introduced Spiffies Tooth Wipes at the Annual Meeting of the American Pediatric Dentistry in May 2004. This knowledgeable and critical audience was immediately receptive to Spiffies Tooth Wipes. Today Spiffies has a growing retail distribution both overseas and in the U.S.

In addition to being a practicing pediatrician, Dr. Wagner is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at A.T. Still School of Osteopathic Medicine near Phoenix. He always mentions the importance of educating parents about oral health to his medical students. Marti Wagner brings her wealth of experience and passion to the day-to-day operations and shares her husband’s advocacy for improving the oral health of children throughout the world.

Most parents either don’t know that they should be brushing or wiping their child’s teeth, or have too difficult a time and just give up. Spiffies is a tooth wipe that uses Xylitol, a natural sweetener found in plants and fruits. Xylitol has also been found in many studies to prevent or stop cavities and even reverse tooth decay. Read more about the benefits of Xylitol here.

Spiffies for infants can be used on baby’s gums before the teeth even come in, or just as they are starting to emerge. You can use them just as you would use a toothbrush, 3 times a day. They are intended for infants 4 months and older, and come in 3 yummy flavors – grape, apple, and mango. They contain no flouride.

Brandon had 4 cavities by the time he was 18 months old, and I so wish I had known about Spiffies at that time. It was one of the hardest things I had to do to watch him get put under to get his cavities filled. Please please take care of your children’s teeth, and if you don’t use Spiffies, at least wipe their gums/teeth with a wet washcloth.

Facts about childhood tooth decay:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says tooth decay is the most common chronic disease of childhood.
Dental cavities in baby teeth are a chronic infection that can turn into a bigger problem.
Tooth decay is almost always completely preventable.
Many young children cannot describe the pain that cavities cause. They may instead act tired, fussy and restless. They may not sleep well at night.

Spiffies retail for $5.50 for a box of 20, $8 for a bottle of I Can Brush solution, and $20 for a New Baby Gift Box, and can be purchased at amazon.com or marbleracers.com or at a store near you.

The lucky winner would be my 14 month old daughter who doesn’t like to have her teeth brushed.

August 26th, 2010 at 5:32 pm

I use a damp toothbrush with soft bristles to brush my daughter’s teeth, gums, and tongue twice daily. Before she had teeth, I used a wet washcloth (that she liked to suck on).

I found you on another mommy blog.

I learned that “Poor oral hygiene increases the amount of bacteria in the mouth, and thus the risk of sinus infection and ear infection.” I didn’t know tooth decay could cause ear infections too.

I learned that…Tooth decay is a chronic infection and once it is established in the baby teeth, it almost always transfers to the permanent as they erupt into the child’s mouth and are exposed to the cavity causing bacteria.

My baby who is 14 months keeps chewing on the brush but won’t let me help him brush his teeth, this would make it easier, quicker and more effective to get his little chompers clean.

I would use the spiffies on my 18 month old son, especially when we are on the go and he eats something sweet and chewy.

September 4th, 2010 at 6:26 am

Our normal routine involves me brushing my sons teeth twice per day with a fingertip toothbrush and toddler toothpaste. I also limit his juice to just once per day and he drinks water the rest of the day.

I learned about xylitol. I’d heard of it before, but did not know what it was.

I would use it on my 5 month old baby and would probably try it on my 3 year old.

September 4th, 2010 at 7:20 pm

We have our 3 year old brush her teeth in the mornings and at night before bed. She flosses periodically with the little handle flossers.

I have a 3yr old & a 14mo old. When I took my 3yr old to the dentist, I learned she had 3 cavaties. So I would love to use spiffies for my 14mo old, who still only has 2 teeth. I would love to try anything to prevent him from getting cavaties like his big sister!
