Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. to decrease this you have to maintain hygiene of the oral cavity by regular cleaning the oral cavity with the help of your finger as a less you can use clean cotton cloth.
this has to be done at least two times per day
also the increased salivation is due to the pre tooth eruption pain and the irritation of dirty things the child places in the oral cavity
if the growth of the child is proper there is no need to give any health supplements or calcium or multivitamins to the child but if it is less than your doctor will examine and according to the deficiency the doctor will give medicine but it is at the same time advisable to go natural by giving diet as per age of the child which contains all the important nutrients and supplements.
usually you have to give onlyx iron and vitamin d supplemxents to the child but that also in maintenance dosage and not as a deficiency dosage after medical consultation.
