When to Start Brushing Teeth?
N.K.
asks from Chicago
I have a 9 month baby who alrady has a couple of teeth. Should I start brushing them. If so, what kind of toothpaste is best?
ANSWERS
See all- Nope. No toothpaste, especially ones with flouride . . .not until they can spit (usually around 3). Either gauze like the previous mom said or a washcloth or ther...
- You should actually start wiping down the gums before teeth even appear. At this point you don't really need toothpaste a good wipe down with a wet rag in the morning...
- They make a infant toothpaste and has this finger brush, I started using it when my little boy was 10 months old and he loves it.
