A group of children using low-fluoridated toothpaste (500ppm) 2. A group of children using fluoridated toothpaste (1450ppm) 3. A group of children using theobromine toothpaste (2%) 4. A group of children using low-fluoridated toothpaste (4%) The researcher will teach the participants how to brush using (tell-show-do)technique. - The brushing method that will be used is the fones technique. - Brushing duration must be 2minutes. - Frequency of brushing must be twice a day - The amount of toothpaste used is pea size.
