When should I start
cleaning my baby's teeth?
This is a good habit to start
early! The teeth must be cleaned as they erupt. Use a damp
wash cloth or a toothbrush.
If your health care provider agrees, use a tiny dab of fluoride
toothpaste. Tooth brushing is definitely a parent's job in the
preschool years.
Children are usually able to brush their teeth well when they are 8 years
old. Be sure to check your child's teeth regularly for any chalky
white or brown spots which could be the beginning of tooth decay.
