Baby's First Tooth Care

Ensure your baby's dental health with proper first tooth care. Start by cleaning their gums after feedings and invest in a gentle toothbrush designed for infants. Introduce fluoride-free toothpaste and establish a daily brushing routine, while also keeping an eye on the toothbrush's condition. Schedule a dental appointment as the first tooth emerges or by their first birthday. Prevent tooth decay by avoiding bedtime bottles and encourage the use of a sippy cup with water around six months. Finally, help your baby transition from bottle to cup between 12-18 months of age.
