A. Thank you Doc Kumar.
Thanks for the crisp response and suggestions.
I have understood that I can start using the baby toothpaste for my two year old now. Kindly suggest the toothpaste. As she is normally swallowing it on my attempt to try toothpaste and that is bothering me. Is any brand available on the First cry good and safe to go? or there is a specific brand to pick up? what to keep in mind while selecting the toothpaste for a baby? Is only florid a concern or other chemicals too?

A. Thank you Khyati.
My daughter does use a brush but without toothpaste. As she tend to swallow it most often. is that okay or should I find some toothpaste which is harmless if swallowed often. Please suggest a good product.

A. At the age of 2 I think you should start brushing your baby's teeth and teach the baby as well how to brush teeth, oral hygiene is important as these small babies have a lot of chances of tooth decay, I used to show my baby poems of brushing teeth on YouTube and then I used to make him pick the brush and then now the moment we go to the bathroom the first thing he picks up is the brush and the paste

A. you have to start cleaning the oral cavity with water everyday after giving food to the child.
also after first tooth eruption you have to start cleaning the teeth of the child at least two times per day either with your finger or cotton cloth.
after few more tooth eruption it is advisable to go for finger toothbrush. iinitially you have to use baby toothpaste of any good brand and take only very small quantity of tooth paste (pea size quantity) to do to tooth brushing.
tongue--initially with the help of fingers and clean cotton cloth and later with the help of tongue cleaner you should clean the tongue of the child
