A. Cleaning a newborn's mouth and tongue Dip a gauze- or cloth-covered finger into the warm water. Gently open your baby's mouth, and then lightly rub their tongue in a circular motion using the cloth or gauze. Softly rub your finger over your baby's gums and on the inside of their cheeks, too.

Q. #AskTheExpert Hi doctor, my son is 14 months old having 4 teeth top and 3 teeth down. iam trying to brush his teeth with finger brush. Though he doesn't like brushing I somehow manage brushing but cleaning his tongue with tongue cleaner provided on the back of finger brush is becoming a hectic task. He nvr allows me to clean his tongue. can I use a cotton cloth and clean his tongue which I used to do earlier when he was a baby. when can I start brushing his teeth and cleaning his tongue without him making a fuss.
