Brushing your child's teeth

Anonymous Author (January 2007)

 

I have found that my child doesn't like brushing her teeth with toothpaste, so i let her brush with just the toothbrush. I asked my dentist about this and he said, the even better way to brush her teeth is to boil some water, let it cool down

and let her dip the toothbrush into the cup of boiled water. It's killing all the germs at the same time.

I hope this helps someone out there. Thankyou.

Something new!!! Thanks. I have yet to start my daughter to brush her teeth(well actually I will have to do it for her) but she only has 2 teeth and right now I just wipe it down with a warm cloth along with her gums! This will be something to remember if my daugther don't like to use toothpaste. :)

I'm glad you like the idea. I didn't think of this either until i spoke to the dentist.
