At what age does the baby start brushing their teeth

  Education should start from the baby, and of course, good habits should also be cultivated from infancy. In order to help the baby grow into a civilized and polite child, the mother and father constantly preach and instill some correct values in the baby from the beginning of his maturity. Another thing is to cultivate babies' independent abilities, such as brushing their teeth. At what age do babies start brushing their teeth?

  

At what age does the baby start brushing their teeth1

  1. At the age of half a year, babies will start to grow teeth, with the first two front teeth appearing below. When the baby's gums sprout small teeth, the mother can use silicone finger cots to clean the baby's teeth or gently wipe them with sanitary gauze. This can clean away food or milk residue attached to teeth to prevent dental plaque.

  2. When a baby is around two and a half years old, all their teeth will be fully grown. At this time, mothers can cultivate their baby's awareness of brushing their teeth. Before cleaning your baby's teeth, you can slowly communicate with them and tell them the importance of brushing their teeth. And the order of brushing teeth should start from the back groove teeth and move forward. Brushing teeth should also be done up and down, not left and right all the time.

  3. Generally, babies can brush their teeth independently before they reach school age, and parents can buy some children's specific dental appliances for their babies. Brushing teeth with your baby every day allows them to fully enjoy the pleasure of brushing. Parents often take their babies to the dentist to learn about teeth and protect them.
