Not looking forward to it, she fights just brushing with water.
-
We started with xylitol toothpaste at 1 year.
-
We started using a fluoride free toothpaste once LO was over 1.
-
We probably won't for a while longer, maybe 1.5-2.
-
Flouride free at 1.
-
Around 12 months. She likes brushing better with toothpaste.
-
Infant toothpaste at around a year. She actually likes it way better because it tastes yummy!
-
Xylitol toothpaste around 9 months and now at 13 months we do flouride once a day (a bit early but the dentist recommended it since our water isn't flouridated).
-
We use flouride-free; started at a year.
-
Right when we started brushing her teeth, it was apple sauce flavour and she LOVES brushing her teeth. We've gotten a few different flavours since, right now it's a tutti-frutti type deal. All of them are fluoride free
-
We started when she turned one but we don't use it every day.
-
LO is 21m and I haven't started using toothpaste yet.
@Weagle: what's the purpose of xylitol toothpaste?
-
@locavore_mama: Xylitol has shown to prevent against some of the most common cavity causing bacteria. And LO likes the taste of her toothpaste.
-
We've been brushing LO's teeth since he was six months old with a finger brush. After he got a bunch of teeth, we brush them with infant toothpaste and his own toothbrush. It's fluoride free and tastes yummy to him.
-
We started using fluoride-free toothpaste at 12-13 months. He loves the taste AND brushing his teeth. I thought toothpaste would be a good way to introduce new flavours and I bought a cilantro mint toothpaste. It was disgusting and he hated it!
-
Floride-free about a year. She begs me to put more on her toothbrush every night
-
flouride free at 13 months
-
Fluoride-free starting around a year. I let him spend a few minutes "brushing" his own teeth (really just chewing on the brush and sometimes moving it around) before I go in and brush them. He enjoys it a lot more since we added the toothpaste!
-
@Smurfette: around 12 months - You may want to try toothpaste- it might make it more enjoyable for her since there is a flavor present
-
around 11 months. actually he likes teeth brushing better now with the tooth gel because of the taste.
