Teeth

How do you manage to brush your child's teeth? My son chews the toothbrush with a bit of toothpaste, then I try to brush his teeth for a few seconds and with him struggling to escape...this never happened with my first son...I am a bit worried that I am not cleaning his teeth properly

Have you tried the silicone finger brush u pop it on ur finger and do it urself honestly I was thinking to do this for my daughter cause my daughter does the same thing but you should try the silicone brush and that should do the trick

Thanks!! I will try it!

Yeah definitely it will be a good idea

I read that at this age its perfectly normal for them to mostly chew on it. Just replace it often and offer to help as often as they will allow it. I noticed with my little one that Brushing my teeth in an overly exaggerated way (open really wide and show her me Brushing the back) and like I enjoy it she now opens wide for me and let's me help her after I let her try herself for a bit.

@Lauryne hahahah yeah that is what we do to!! 🤣🤣 I saw an ad about that brush but I wasn't convinced...

@Jen I do this already but he ignores me and goes on chewing his toothbrush...but yeah probably it's normal at this age...

We do it in front of a mirror and he loves to watch me brush his teeth
