Not every baby & toddler will like having their teeth brushed so it's a good idea to start early with a soft toothbrush (or even a teether) and to find ways to make tooth brushing fun. Whether you are using a finger toothbrush or a regular soft toothbrush we have found the best method is to sit them on your lap with their head resting on your shoulder. Although there are lots of positions to try and you might find the best position changes over the years.
