Hi there,
My son is coming to 18 months old and he has a total of 10 teeth (so specific haha)
Anyway my question is, how can I brush his teeth when he kept resisting, widgeting, struggling and pushing my hands everytime I attempt to??
I usually resort to cleaning his mouth by using my fingers (clean ofcourse) to swipe his tongue, inside the mouth and wipe his front teeth...And I'll definitely get bitten!
I've tried brushing teeth in front of him (which he was really fascinated), let him hold his toothbrush, sing Barney song the part where the characters was brushing their teeth which result to him dancing and NOT brushing the teeth!) :wong16:
I dunno what can make him atleast let me brush his teeth?! Any ideas mummies/ daddies??? Thanks!
