Who would ever think of gauze?! Not me! Lol that's who!

I have some in the cabinet.. And the wash rag sounds good too! I will do it tonight since I haven't bought a tooth brush for him yet!

Thanks!

Gauze works wonders and easy. I work in dental field that it was my doctor usually recommends to make it easy

They sell little baby toothbrush with toothpaste they can swallow or you can just use a wet washcloth I used the burp cloths

Thank you ladies!!

Yes, pp it helps me a lot! Thank you!

We have 8 teeth, with 2 more on the way.

Jayce has the banana brush as well, which was fun at fist, but is now more of a toy (I'm not complaining, he brushes during the day too because of this!)

He also has his own toothbrush get accoustomed to the bristles, which I let him hold while I do the actual brushing. If u go that way it's recommended the brush has no more than 3 rows of bristles. The boxes are typically labeled with an age/stage for the bristle softness. Finally, I brush his teeth with the baby origel tooth and gum cleaner (u slip it on your finger and go to town.) I found I have the most control with this one, and it gives an ammmazing massage on sore gums.

If you feel like you still haven't gotten his mouth that clean you can always use a cotton pad and a bit of infant toothpaste and wipe the gums and tounge. It's my go to whenever brushing is just not working.

Also, make sure the toothpaste you choose is fluoride free! You'd be surpised how many tubes have it...

Hope my essay helps ;P

My daughters first tooth is coming in, so I brush her teeth twice a day once in the morning and once at night. Gotta keep those sparkly whites nice and clean.

We have the banana brush and Sophia loves it! I try to be good and brush them before bed but most of the time she falls asleep.

No teeth yet here. But I use gum/teeth wipes that I get from Babies R' Us. When Alexander gets his first teeth I have a baby toothbrush that my dentist gave me ready to go!

Awesome! Thanks! I'll get a starter toothbrush!

I got a training one that looks like a banana off amazon. I brush his teeth for a sec and then give it to him while I brush and he rubs his gums and teeth with it. Really cute

Lol I can see why that's not working out too well! Ya I totally forgot to ask zains pedi at his 9 month check up.

Elijah has his own baby toothbrush and training toothbrush. The pediatrician told us to brush them before bedtime after he has his last bottle, but that's not working out too well because he falls asleep while he eats lol.
