A. Hi you can ideally start brushing your kid's teeth as soon as the first tooth erupts in the oral cavity of your child.. use silicon finger toothbrush along with rice grain size amount of nonfluoridated flavoured age appropriate kids toothpaste twice a day

A. The recommended time to start brushing a baby's teeth is as soon as the first tooth appears, typically around 6-7 months of age. Before that, you can gently clean the gums with a soft cloth or finger brush to remove bacteria. Even if you're not using a toothbrush, it's important to introduce oral hygiene habits early to prevent cavities and dental issues.
