When should I start brushing my teeth?
We start brushing children's teeth as soon as they emerge - this can be done with damp gauze, a special wipe or a clean cloth in the morning and at night before going to bed. This can be done as long as the surface of the teeth is smooth and has a simple anatomical structure, and until the child's first milk teeth have erupted, i.e. until about 1 year of age. After that, you should buy a soft children's toothbrush (according to your child's age) and brush with it. You should also not use any toothpaste at the beginning - it is important that your child understands that he/she needs to take care of his/her teeth.
