Parenting is a huge role you can never be prepared enough for!

Can I only give my baby solids at 6 months only? Is Baby-led Weaning better than Traditional Weaning? Can't seem to get your baby to stop drinking from the boob or even the feeding bottle? When do I start brushing my baby's teeth and should I use a toothpaste? Do I REALLY need to bring my 1-year-old for a dental visit? If these questions have been at the back of your mind, fear not as we have Dr Jessica Khong, a mum of 2 and a Kids Dentist from Royce Dental, to answer questions about weaning and dental health in this episode of Cherish Nature's Gift™: The Podcast! Dr Jessica Khong obtained her Bachelor in Dental Surgery and Masters in Paediatric Dentistry from the Faculty of Dentistry, National University of Singapore.

She is currently at Royce Orthodontic & Paediatric Dental Centre, Katong i12 Mall and has previously worked at public institutions such as National Dental Centre Singapore and Health Promotion Board.
