2 year old is a Chocolate lover

Doesnt want to eat meals but kit kat and cookies. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this habit.

Also, how much chocolate is ok without getting into dental trouble? more  

Hey Neelima, Not sure if I have any suggestion on how to ween your 2 year old off chocolates. But from a dental perspective, you just have to make sure that you are able to clean his/her teeth really well every time they eat chocolate. If chocolate remains stuck on to the teeth, it could lead to tooth decay. So as long as you can keep it clean, quantity is not too much of a worry. You should however check with your childs paediatrician about how much caffeine, which chocolates contain is ok for your child. Prashant www.nandadental.com more
