A. brushing of kids teeth should start as soon as the first to erupts in the baby's mouth do not delay any further and start brushing using a grain size of kids age appropriate toothpaste like Colgate kids cheerio or kidodent.

A. At 20 months, a child's teeth should be brushed twice a day, once in the morning and once before bed, using a soft-bristled toothbrush designed for children. Until 18 months, use only water, and from 18 months onwards, use a pea-sized amount of low-fluoride toothpaste. Supervise the brushing process, especially as toddlers may not be able to clean their teeth effectively on their own.

A. As a parent, you should try to make dental care a pleasant experience for your baby right from the start. When your baby gets his first teeth, baby toothpaste will eventually play an important role in setting the stage for your child's later healthy dental practices, but when should you introduce your child to brushing with toothpaste? Toothpaste should not be used on babies younger than the age of two, because babies cannot expectorate (spit it out). Use a soft-bristled baby toothbrush or finger brush and a light touch when cleaning your baby's new teeth. You only need to use water at this stage - no toothpaste necessary, unless recommended by your baby's dentist.
