We brush at nighttime before bed—mornings are too crazy. Started with a fluoride-free paste when the first tooth erupted, but pediatrician recommended fluoride toothpaste after we hit 12months > had 8 teeth by then. We’re going to have him go to the dentist in January or by next July just to make sure all are growing in well & to reduce fear of the dentist office environment & staff

Yes nighttime is better for me too cus he gets a bath as well ! He’s too wild in the mornings 😂 . did you use a toothbrush along w the fluoride free paste ? I may just get the fluoride one tho since he’s over 1 year old . & aww wow 8 teeth !! so cute 🥰, good idea ! Do you mind sharing which toothpaste & toothbrush you use ?

Colgate cavity protection toothpaste for kids and smart care toothbrush

It has fluoride so you have to use the amount of toothpaste as the size of a grain of rice

My baby has 12 teeth and we don’t use toothpaste or even brush every day yet 🤣 we let her chew on the toothbrush when she is in the bath. We def don’t do it every day and we can’t stick it in her mouth she only wants to chew on it herself.

My LO loves her Dr. Brown’s toothbrush and strawberry toothpaste! She has 12 teeth and we brush almost every night before bed.
