Baby Teeth Care – California Dental Insurance
Baby Teeth Care: You will want to start cleaning your baby’s teeth twice a day as soon as the first tooth appears. Until your child is older, around one, you can use a soft wet cloth to clean your baby teeth and gums. Once your child is around a year, you can then use a baby toothbrush. Make sure you use a non-fluoride toothpaste, and you only need to use a dab. I would not use any toothpaste with fluoride until your child can spit and knows not to eat or swallows the toothpaste. It’s suggested that you take your child to see the dentist at or around their first birthday
