Hope it is okay that I am jumping in here, but yes, I would brush with a

little bit of toothpaste daily.  Start with the childrens fluoride free kind

since she will not be able to spit out the toothpaste and they should not be

swallowing fluoride.  At least this is the opinion of Callie's pediatric

dentist.  If anyone has problems with their child accepting a toothbrush

into their mouth, you might have better luck with tooth wipes.  Something

like this:

My dentist gave us a sample of a brand called Spiffies.  Best of luck!

So what do you suggest? My girl has just turned 1 and is cutting her first

tooth with two others trying. Once they are through should I be brushing

them with a little bit of toothpaste daily?

Its a fight for us too.  My son had tooth decay on his baby teeth and

suffered so much before we figured out what was wrong.  When the dentists

looked at his teeth they said it didn't look like it would cause so much

pain.  It wasn't until we put him under anesthesia and they took an xray

that they realized his teeth were very bad.  They pulled out 2 and capped

2.  We are diligent now.  Some days he gives us a hard time but some days he

just accepts it.  I agree, it so much work and I feel the same way some

times, I also have a 2 year old that drives me crazy!  LOL.

      My son has gotten most of his teeth as would a typical child but a

some of them are missing enamel. Anyone else have this issue? The dentist

says I should brush them with fluoride toothpaste regularly. I try as often

as I can but most often I just wipe them off with a wet washcloth.

I'm just too tired to fight him to get the brush in as much as I should.

There are so many things I have to do to him that upset him, I'm just

picking my battles. I'm hoping I'm not making a mistake!

lot of your babies are older and teething. My son is 10 months old and still

hasn't any teeth thought maybe the two were connected. Thanks!
