when should i start brushing my baby's teeth
Start cleaning your babyâs teeth and gums with a wet washcloth or gauze. Do this at least once a day or after feedings. Once your baby starts to get teeth, clean their mouth at least twice a day. When your child is 1 to 2 years old, switch to a soft baby toothbrush with water. Add a small dab of toothpaste that does not have fluoride in it. This type of toothpaste is safe for your baby to swallow. Brush your babyâs teeth at least twice a day. You also should start using floss in between your babyâs teeth. Things to consider
