0- 1 year: Because the first deciduous tooth erupts, it is necessary to brush your teeth (usually the baby will grow teeth in 4-7 months), that is, parents wrap wet gauze on their fingers or gently clean the tooth surface and massage the gum tissue with a fingertip toothbrush. As long as parents think it is safe to use a toothbrush, it is ok to choose a soft-haired toothbrush suitable for children to brush their teeth after wetting, but toothpaste is not necessary or recommended. At least twice a day, especially after drinking milk or complementary food, be sure to pay attention to cleaning.
1-3 years old: direct brushing is advocated at this stage. When children can gargle (about 3 years old), they can use fluoride toothpaste for children, about the size of rice grains at a time. Usually at this stage, parents help to brush, and children can only imitate, not completely brush. At this time, it is recommended to floss, but it needs professional guidance from parents.
Note: drinking milk before going to bed or drinking milk for a long time at night is easy to damage your baby's teeth. Parents can use bedtime stories and other things instead of drinking milk, or advance the time of drinking milk and separate it from bedtime. In addition, some foods that are easy to leave residues, such as biscuits, sweets, fruits, raisins, peanut butter and jelly, should also be eaten less, because residues are easy to breed bacteria in the mouth and cause dental caries. It is best to wash these foods immediately after eating them, such as gargling or drinking some water.
Hello, this question is answered by Cui Yutao Education Park. Click on the attention above to see more related questions! ~
As we all know, brushing teeth is the most basic oral health care method, and many parents often brush their babies, but some small details of brushing their babies are unknown to parents. For example,
First of all, children before the age of 6 do not have the ability to brush their teeth completely independently, and they need parents' help to brush their teeth during this time. If the baby shows special interest in brushing his teeth during this period, then his parents will encourage him more and give him a chance to try. After the baby is brushed, parents can brush the baby again on this basis to make it completely clean.
Secondly, when brushing your baby's teeth, it is best to brush your teeth for 3 minutes at a time. Some parents will ask, how many teeth does the baby need to brush for such a long time? Yes, teeth can be brushed in a short time, but fluoride in toothpaste often takes a while to act on teeth. In other words, the length of time fluoride stays on teeth directly determines the health of teeth.
Another thing parents should pay attention to is not to use too much force when brushing their baby's teeth. It is not that the greater the strength, the cleaner the teeth, and there is no positive correlation between them. Parents just need to gently brush their baby's teeth with a toothbrush. If parents push too hard, it is easy to hurt the baby, making him resistant and may reject brushing his teeth in the future.
Finally, regarding the toothbrush, we suggest that the baby change it once every three months, so as to avoid bacteria growing on the brush head and affecting the dental health. If the bristles are messy or lodging, they should be replaced in time.
When I changed my teeth when I was a child, my mother would teach me to stand neatly and throw my teeth on the roof, so that my teeth would be neat. Sure enough, my teeth are really neat. Hehe, actually, whether our teeth are good or not has nothing to do with falling on the roof, but how we brush our teeth every day.
One: When did you start brushing your teeth? When the baby grows its first deciduous tooth. You must start brushing your baby's teeth.
Two: What kind of toothbrush do you choose?
1: Choose a toothbrush for children. Some people say that gauze should be used, others say that silicone finger toothbrush covers should be used, but dentists say that children's toothbrushes must be used.
2. Choose children's toothbrushes with small heads and soft hair, with different ages.
Three: Toothpaste: 1: It is not recommended that kind of very sweet toothpaste with fruit flavor to prevent children from eating it as candy. If you want to use fluoride toothpaste, controlling the dosage will not affect it.
2: Dosage: 0-3 years old rice grain size, 3-6 years old soybean size.
It is very beneficial to your baby's health in the long run to let him develop a healthy habit of brushing his teeth. Some parents may think that the baby is too young to brush his teeth, and the deciduous teeth should be changed anyway, so it is actually a big cognitive misunderstanding to wait until the baby changes his teeth. Because dental caries will hinder the baby's chewing ability and affect the digestion and absorption of food. Secondly, the baby's face is rich in blood, and the bacteria in the affected area will spread to other parts with the blood. If the situation is serious, it may also cause some organ diseases. Therefore, protecting the baby's teeth can start from the time he is born.
Specifically, babies aged 0 to 6 can brush their teeth in the following ways. Generally speaking, we should follow the following two principles.
Babies from zero to six years old must brush their teeth under the guidance of our parents. There is no fixed time to brush your teeth. Generally speaking, it is good to brush every side of every baby's teeth.
For babies from 0 to 6 months old, we should start cleaning the baby's mouth at birth. Mother can dip a cotton swab in a little water and gently massage the baby's gums. Baby who eats milk powder, give her some water after eating milk powder to brush her teeth.
When the baby is six to twelve months old, parents should start to cultivate the baby's brushing habits when the baby sprouts the first deciduous tooth, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of dental caries. Parents had better clean their baby's teeth with a silicone finger toothbrush. When we first started brushing our teeth, we mainly wanted our baby to get used to brushing his teeth so that he wouldn't have a particularly strong resistance to brushing his teeth.
Babies aged one to three should brush their teeth once in the morning and once in the evening. When brushing your teeth, use your baby's special toothbrush and toothpaste. Because the baby can't spit out toothpaste at this time, we try to give him fluoride-free toothpaste. Toothpaste is only the size of a grain of rice.
How to brush your baby's teeth? The baby will begin to grow deciduous teeth about half a year after birth. When deciduous teeth just erupted, the growth of gingival tissue was imperfect and the softness was still high. At this time, children's food is mostly sweet and waxy food, which provides favorable conditions for the growth and reproduction of caries bacteria.
1. After a child drinks milk with a toothbrush finger cover, there will be milk stains in his mouth and he will not rinse his mouth. Therefore, Bao Dad needs a toothbrush finger cover to help clean his mouth.
2. Brush your teeth for children from 6 months to 1.5 years old: mother holds the child and lets the child lie in her arms. You need to hold your child's head and lips with your hands, and then clean your child's teeth with a medical gauze or a fingertip toothbrush dipped in warm water.
3.2-3-year-old children's brushing methods 65,438+0.5-3-year-old children: children can stand upright or sit on chairs and stools, with their mothers behind or on one side of the children, holding their heads with their hands and brushing their teeth with a toothbrush dipped in warm water. The toothbrush is inclined at a 45-degree angle, up and down, left and right, back and forth, inside and out. It is best to brush your teeth for at least 3 minutes before you can clean your teeth.
4, teeth are very important to protect teeth is something we must do, because teeth are a part of our body, bad teeth will affect the digestion and absorption of the stomach, children need parents to help check when they are young, otherwise the children themselves will not understand the consequences of bad teeth.

Generally speaking, when brushing your baby's teeth, the way babies brush their teeth at different stages is different: a very young baby can lie on the sofa, the person who brushes his teeth is at the baby's head side, his hands are wrapped in gauze and gently wiped with water. The baby should brush his teeth from the first tooth, that is, about six months, and the position of his gums should also be wiped, preferably twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Many babies will breastfeed at night, so it is necessary to give up night milk. If the baby has night milk, it will not only affect the growth and development, but also cause dental caries if he does not brush his teeth. If the baby just has teeth, Ma Bao can clean the baby's mouth with gauze. This way of brushing teeth lasts until the child is about two and a half years old. When the baby is two and a half to three years old, at this time, the baby has the ability to understand and express. Under the guidance of parents, the baby will learn to brush his teeth. At this time, parents should choose a toothbrush suitable for their baby and urge them to brush their teeth in the morning and evening. After the baby is three years old, many children can brush their teeth independently, but they still need the supervision of their parents, which makes it difficult for them to be lazy.
First of all, thank you very much for answering the question of how infants brush their teeth. Our baby is now 9 months old and has experienced the problem of brushing teeth for infants. Then I looked for many methods on the Internet, and finally I found a simple and practical method, that is, I bought a nursing product (also called a tampon for babies) of an infant oral cleaner.
This product is easy to buy online, cheap and convenient. It is mainly suitable for babies over the age of zero, and then its use method is particularly simple, that is, dipping in a little warm water or sesame oil and then directly cleaning the mouth and teeth. This product is disposable and disinfected, so it is very healthy, safe and convenient (there are also some suggestions on the Internet to clean the mouth of black babies with that cotton cloth wrapped around their fingers. This method is ok, but it is particularly troublesome, so it is not recommended.
Judging from our baby's use of this baby oral cleaner, the baby doesn't refuse this baby oral cleaner at all. At the same time, when cleaning our baby's mouth, she still likes it, so parents and friends don't have to worry that the baby will not accept this product when using it. I saw many comments from Ma Bao, saying that the baby accepted it.
Because someone on the Internet said that Bao Xiao didn't start cleaning his mouth until he had teeth, but this is actually wrong. It usually takes four or five months to clean the baby's mouth. Our baby began to clean his mouth in May, when the tongue coating was very thick. We also looked up some information. If it is not cleaned, it will affect the health of children, especially some lactating babies. It is best to pay special attention to cleaning their mouths, preferably once a day.
I hope the above methods can help the subject.
How small is the baby? You can brush your teeth from the first eruption.
At first, I dipped the gauze in water and brushed my children's teeth with my parents' fingers. If you are older, you can use a training toothbrush and a silicone toothbrush within 2 years old. No toothpaste, just water.
The baby's teeth are white and neat, and it will look good when you smile. If the baby's teeth are covered with dental plaque, it will greatly reduce the value of the face. Some people will say that the baby is still young, and these problems will be considered later.
In fact, no matter how old the baby is, everyone should pay attention to dental care. When a baby drinks milk or eats complementary food, there will always be some milk dirt and food residue in his mouth. This invasion of gums will affect the eruption of deciduous teeth.
Therefore, the baby's dental care should start from an early age and refuse all kinds of dental problems. Here are some tips for brushing your baby's teeth. Take them away quickly.
The baby's deciduous teeth haven't erupted yet.
Many people have such doubts. The baby has no teeth yet. Is it necessary to brush his teeth? The answer is of course yes!
Yu Jie suggested that after the baby finished eating milk or complementary food, let him drink a few mouthfuls of warm water to rinse his mouth and wash away the milk scale and food residue in his mouth. Then everyone washes their hands, wraps the baby's sterile cotton gauze around the index finger, dips in some warm water, and gently wipes the baby's gums.
Doing so can not only effectively clean the baby's mouth, but also properly massage the gums, speed up the eruption of deciduous teeth, and improve the gum discomfort when teething.
The baby has long deciduous teeth.
For babies who already have deciduous teeth, Yujie suggests that everyone use a soft brush for infants to brush their teeth. This toothbrush is not only the same size as a baby's mouth, but also soft hair can prevent teeth and gums from being damaged. In addition, you'd better brush your baby's teeth with toothpaste containing xylitol, which can not only remove dental plaque, but also prevent the formation of dental plaque, without worrying that the baby's swallowing toothpaste will affect his health.
When brushing your baby's teeth at first, your baby may "not cooperate". At this time, everyone should not worry, but guide him patiently. If the toothless baby is very resistant to toothbrushes, you can give him a few mouthfuls of warm water to clean his mouth after eating. When the baby's resistance is not so great, brush your teeth with gauze to clean your gums.
In addition, everyone should set a good example for the baby in life and often brush their teeth in front of the baby. The baby has a strong imitation ability and will learn to brush his teeth slowly. It would be better to cooperate with some story picture books that explain how babies brush their teeth.
Babies love to brush their teeth since childhood and keep their teeth neat and white, which can not only increase their appetite, but also make their image temperament more outstanding. Therefore, everyone should act quickly to keep dental plaque away from the baby.
1, how old did the baby start to grow deciduous teeth? How do you care?
Babies generally begin to grow deciduous teeth at about 6 to 10 months. At this time, the mother can feed the baby, put a tongue coating brush on the baby's hand and gently wipe it. Wipe and clean three times a week. It can also prevent the baby from having cavities.
2. When is it appropriate for the baby to brush his teeth?
You can teach your baby to brush his teeth after 2 years old. At the age of 2, the baby's teeth have all grown up and become sensible. Young people, at this time, children can quickly imitate the basic family practices.
3. How to cultivate the baby's habit of brushing teeth?
Parents should cultivate their baby's good habit of brushing their teeth from an early age. From 1 year-old, parents can help their baby clean with finger cuffs, let the baby gargle independently, and get used to the process of letting water enter without swallowing.
At the age of 2, parents should prepare soft-haired toothbrushes for their babies, especially children's toothbrushes with cute cartoon appearance, and prepare warm water to brush their teeth. You can also use fruit-flavored toothpaste for children, or buy it at a pregnant and baby store. There are toothpastes for babies and some that can be swallowed, so mothers should also pay attention when choosing toothpaste. Let the baby fall in love with this brushing process.
4. What should parents pay attention to when brushing their teeth?
When the baby brushes his teeth, the mother must accompany him, pay attention to the baby and teach him to brush gently with his hands, which will save the baby's gums. Just brush your teeth for 5 minutes at a time. Don't spend too long, but it will make children feel that brushing their teeth is a very boring thing, so they must be emotionally interested in it.
Mom and dad are busy at work, and they can arrange time to brush their teeth with their baby on weekends. The whole family has a fixed time to brush their teeth. Let me do what my parents are doing, praise the baby appropriately, and let the baby develop good habits from an early age. Improve your interest in brushing your teeth.
5. How do you care for your baby's teeth?
Brush your teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, to develop good living habits. Bao mothers should also pay attention to that in the usual dental care, don't let the baby eat too much sugary food, such as chocolate, fruit candy, cakes and so on. These sweets can cause dental diseases.
In order to make your baby's teeth more nutritious and healthy, you can give your child more foods with high calcium content, such as tofu, soybeans, fungus and eggs.
In addition to these, children should be supplemented with vitamin AD to get more sunshine, and more attention should be paid to reducing the harm and stimulation caused by some acidic and cold foods, such as lemons and ice cream.
Giving children some coarse grains and foods rich in fiber can also reduce food residues in teeth, such as corn, millet, soybeans, sorghum and celery. These are foods rich in fiber and some coarse grains, which can increase the friction between teeth and food and protect children's teeth to some extent.
Bao Ma, you must start with the details of your child's teeth, and don't bother. After all, teeth are friends who accompany children all their lives.
