When to Begin Brushing Baby Teeth?
According to The Canadian Dental Association, children should begin seeing a dentist six months after the first tooth appears, although many dentists say that anytime between one and three years old is fine, unless you can see visible problems such as brown spots or misaligned teeth. These early visits are a good opportunity to set up positive associations with visits to the dentist, so try to talk about the importance of healthy, strong teeth and the kind dentist who will look at them before and after your visit.
