The kids love them. They dont have to charge. And even if they just sit there with the brush in their mouth I feel better about the amount of cleaning getting done. Our Sonicare ones were too rough/loud for them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723845 Thu, 13 Apr 2017 09:28:49 +0000 snowjewelz 2723845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got DD one when she was like 18 months! It was only cool for so long. Right now, what works is that we tell her she needs to brush her teeth so she doesn't have to go to the dentist lol. She did not enjoy her last visit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723836 Thu, 13 Apr 2017 09:22:18 +0000 winniebee 2723836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our kids love/d electric toothbrushes and I agree that they helped create some novelty to the brushing routine and got them to brush when they hated it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723800 Thu, 13 Apr 2017 08:53:58 +0000 MrsBrewer 2723800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a great idea! My LO hates getting her teeth brushed......I may have to try this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723711 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 21:36:50 +0000 gilmoregirl 2723711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought one because the pediatrician recommended it, but my kid was scared of it, and remains scared of it at 3. It's a great idea if your kiddo goes for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723709 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 21:20:09 +0000 misolee 2723709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dental hygienist told me one of the many perks of using an electric toothbrush for kids is that it gets them used to the whirling/whooshing sound and when they do go in for dental visits, it's not as scary bc the noise is what they've been accustomed to </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723692 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 20:25:29 +0000 MrsADS 2723692@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We ordered a baby electric toothbrush, recommended by our ped because LO (19m] hates teeth brushing. She says a lot of toddlers love it. Well, he's scared of it and hates it. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723690 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 20:21:16 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2723690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD would be scared of the noise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723689 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 20:19:53 +0000 ValentineMommy 2723689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both our sons loved them at a young age as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723658 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 19:13:52 +0000 petitenoisette 2723658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been wondering if an electric toothbrush would help my LO not hate teeth brushing. She likes to help me use mine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/electric-toothbrush-for-younger-los-a-tip#post-2723647 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 18:52:49 +0000 DesertDreams88 2723647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Spinning off of the earlier thread today about parenting secrets....</p> <p>... I let LO (14.5m) use an electric toothbrush. He brushes with either DH or I, while we brush our teeth, every morning and night. He LOVES it. He has the exact make/model that we have (we use a different color head, though, so to not switch them!) and I think he likes mimicking us.</p> <p>I haven't bothered to look up if electric toothbrushes are "ok"..... whatever. It WORKS. </p> <p>Maybe something to try :) </p>
