Brushing teeth

I haven’t got to this stage yet, but from other posts I’ve heard that letting them play and explore the brush without toothpaste can help so they are less afraid of it and see it as a fun thing. And brushing your teeth with them at the same time x

That's a good idea, thankyou. I'll try that ☺️

Thankyou !

We’ve got an electric one for our LG and I think because of the novelty, she loves putting it in her mouth. (Maybe helps with teething too.

It’s this brand and we also use the Apple mint toothpaste - only a smear as she only has 2 teeth.

She has to do it though.. I can just about fight to quickly brush the two teeth and then she wants to do it herself.. or at least chew on it 🤣

I was really struggling with this last week and I found brushing in front of a mirror with him and singing a song helped. I can't say I'm doing it for 2 minutes or it's perfect but there's been no more tears and resisting
