Teeth brushing

How are y'all doing brushing your babies teeth? My 10 month old has six teeth now and I feel like we are off to a terrible start. I'm letting her chew on a toothbrush with some training toothpaste but she will not let me brush them for her and I'm not sure how to take care of them without her fighting back.

We have baby toothbrushes but she now fights me too, so I got some of the finger toothbrushes to at least get in her mouth. Your girl is adorable in her little glasses!

I use a double sided finger toothbrush with toothpaste with fluoride in it and went to see a dentist just to start getting my LO use to the idea all they do is brush them and mark in their chart what teeth have came in or are coming in!

I usually brush my teeth at the same time. So I give him his tooth brush to “brush” first while he watches me brush my teeth. When I’m done with mine I put a little toothpaste on his brush and finish brushing his teeth and tongue

Mine is obsessed with our sonicare so I bought him his own brush head. No toothpaste yet.

I use a finger brush for her and I sing her a little tooth brushing song that she thinks is just hilarious haha no toothpaste yet for us I’d like to get her to the dentist soon though - only two teeth so far here

My provider told me to just use a damp cloth and wipe them for now
