How do I use Dentinox Cradle Cap Treatment Shampoo?

To treat cradle cap, dampen your baby’s head with warm water and gently massage about half a teaspoonful of Dentinox Shampoo onto the entire scalp. For the best results, use the shampoo on its own, as use in combination with other shampoos may cause your baby’s scalp to become dry.

You can use this shampoo until the cradle cap completely clears up. Since Dentinox contains mild and gentle ingredients, you can also use it as a general shampoo, even after your baby’s cradle cap has completely healed.

Alternatives to Dentinox Cradle Cap Treatment Shampoo

As an alternative to using a specialised cradle cap shampoo, a soft-bristled brush can help to dislodge and remove any stubborn flakes left by cradle cap. Just remember to be as gentle as possible and avoid excess massaging, as rough treatment of the area may aggravate the condition and could even cause an infection.

If you do decide to brush the scales away, be sure to moisturise the area afterwards. A gentle emollient cream will work to prevent the rash from returning. If the condition is proving difficult to treat, a healthcare professional may recommend a mild corticosteroid cream.
