I just try to suprise DS with the toothbrush. He likes the way the baby toothpaste tastes, but he doesn't like it near as much when I brush his teeth. I do let him play with the toothbrush, but I don't feel like his teeth are getting that clean. I was thinking about buying this toothbrush, it seems like it would work well even if all they did was chew on it.

(To see a pic of the actual brush you have to click on the pic of the girl using it.)

Has anyone used it before?

Those do look interesting, I'd like to know if anyone's tried them before as well!
I've seen those somewhere, not sure where though...

quickly..lol

Seriously, I took each kid to Walmart and let them pick out a toothbrush and matching toothpaste. That has always helped. Then every 3 mos when the newness has worn off I do it again. They tend to chew on the brushes so they get worn out quickly. then we have races to see who can get their teeth done the quickest..lol

I give my 18month old his toothbrush with alittle toothpaste(his toothpaste) on it whilte Im brushing mine and he chews on it, than when Im done I ask I mommy can brush his teeth, he hands me the toothbrush I do a brush hand it back to him and he chews on it again for a couple mins and were done. DS loves brushing his teeth with me (but than he wants to help me..lol0

Didn't read all the other threads so forgive me if I'm just repeating

Dakotah had 10 teeth before she was 10 months old, got her first 4 at 7 months I think in two days. I was wiping with a washcloth before then, but got the rubber finger brush when she got them in. Use it twice a day, a couple months ago I had some issues with her fighting me when I switched to the big girl toothbrush, so I went back, I brush her teeth with the finger brush, then give her the biggirl toothbrush while I brush my own...so this seems to work, as she's stopped fighting me

i got DD an Oral B spin brush type thing. it is a pooh brush and she loves it. she likes to show pooh her teeth. she does bite it some but not as much as she did the regular brush.

i thought the sound of the spinner might scare her but it didn't. she likes the feeling of it.
