Question: When do you start brushing your baby’s baby teeth with toothpaste?  I will be taking my son to see the dentist for his fist appointment.  He has about five teeth in now.  What to make sure they are looking good and coming in correctly.  But until now I have not use toothpaste just baby teeth wipes.  So I would love to hear when other people changed to brushing with paste.

Answer: You can start to use toothpaste that does not have fluoride in it. However you should not use toothpaste with fluoride until your baby knows how to spit.  Normally around the age of two.
