And after all, what tiny human doesn’t adore the bear of very little brain? Parents should assist in teeth brushing until they're child is old enough to take on the task themselves Opens a new window at about age 7 or 8, says the AAP, and should supervise until they're about age 10. How we chose the best baby toothbrushes There isn’t a hard-and-fast rule on when kids should start using electric toothbrushes, but according to Park, it’s recommended to wait until they’re 3 years old.

Cons: button can wear out fast, may need to replace more often than higher priced toothbrushes, brush heads are not replaceable Special features: Some toothbrushes come with a blinking light or vibrations that will shut off once the recommended time of toothbrushing is done. Others come with handles that make them easier for babies to hold, or anti-choking guards that prevent them from going too far into a baby’s mouth. These features may or may not make your life easier, so consider whether you want to pay a premium for them. Most electric toothbrushes come with a 2-minute timer feature to encourage healthy brushing. But yes, we hear you — 2 minutes can feel like a lifetime with a toddler. The ADA has a list just for kids that contains recommended toothpastes, mouth rinses, toothbrushes, floss, and other dental-related products. The AAP and AAPD recommend using a rice-grain sized dab of kid friendly toothpaste containing fluoride as soon as your child's first tooth emerges. Once children are 3 to 6 years old, says the AAPD, parents should increase the amount of toothpaste to pea-size. After brushing, children should spit out, not swallow, excess toothpaste. Should baby toothpaste have fluoride?

If your child has a mix of baby and adult teeth, or crooked teeth, then the FlossBrush™ is ideal - it has longer bristles so can clean in between teeth.

This Philips Sonicare Rechargeable Toothbrush arrives fully charged and has a long battery life. It also connects to a free interactive app designed to educate kids and get them excited about brushing, but we found the app cumbersome because it required a lot of information before setup. Look up baby finger toothbrushes. They are brilliant.” (Product type recommended by Mumsnet user EgSk) An electric toothbrush can be a great tool in your child’s dental routine (and may even get them more excited about brushing their teeth if it’s not exactly a favorite activity). Just make sure to wait until they’re at least 3 years old, and look for options with soft bristles and a small brush head.

Pharmacy product

Cute enough to appeal to little ones and parents alike, the Baby Banana toothbrush can be used for babies from 3 to 12 months. The design of the brush is perfect for teaching little ones how to properly brush their teeth, with the banana's peel serving as a handle. Meanwhile, the soft silicone bristles are gentle on baby’s gums and, when gnawed on, can even provide relief when your baby is teething. This Oral-B toothbrush is ideal for kids because they simply need to hold it on each tooth and let the brush do the work. We also like that there’s only one button for on, off, or slow mode and that it pauses every 30 seconds to alert kids to move to the next quadrant of their mouth. Age suitability: 0-3 years | Power: Not powered | Firmness: Soft | Size: 122.9cm x 4.2cm x 2.3cm | Material: BPA free, 100% food-grade silicone What we love Babies’ new teeth are vulnerable to decay just as adults’ are – more so, in fact – so regular brushing is essential to dislodge cavity-causing plaque and food debris. Without proper care, teeth may need to be filled – or worse, extracted. The premature removal of baby teeth hurts and can affect the alignment of permanent teeth once they come through too.

Also, choose the toothbrush carefully. I like the colgate ones. We've had a Mothercare one and a Sainsbury's one where the head was bigger and IMO far too big to be comfortable or practical for a baby."
